Sum of quantity based on latest file date of each item

I have an inventory fact table with fields: file date, items, available quantity, and store number. The different stores will upload their inventory multiple times through the day but it could be at different time stamps. I'm looking to find the available quantity for each item and store for the most recent file date.

 

Here's a sample table:

 

file dateour_item_numberavailablestore
4/10/24 10:00 AM1238005
4/10/24 11:00 AM12322505
4/10/24 12:00 PM12387505
4/10/24 10:00 AM2235005
4/10/24 11:00 AM22310005
4/10/24 12:00 PM22315005
4/10/24 11:00 AM223-21007
4/10/24 1:00 PM223-10507

 

Here's the measure that I've been using:

 

 

OH QTY = 
var maxdate =
CALCULATE(
    MAX(Inventory[File Date])
    )

return 
CALCULATE(
    SUMX('Inventory','Inventory'[Available]),
    Inventory[File Date] = maxdate
)

 

 

This works for the item/store level but it does not total correctly. It gives me only the sum of the available qty for the max value of the file date.

 

example of actual output:

 

storeour_item_numberOH QTY
51238750
51231500
7223-1050
TOTAL -1050

 

output that I want:

storeour_item_numberOH QTY
51238750
51231500
7223-1050
TOTAL 9200

 

From what I've read, it may be something to do with row context but I can't quite figure it out.

 

Any thoughts/comments are appreciated!

Hi @3rdAbnormalForm 

please try

OH QTY =
SUMX (
SUMMARIZE ( Inventory, Inventory[store], Inventory[our_item_numver] ),
SUMX (
TOPN ( 1, CALCULATETABLE ( Inventory ), Inventory[File Date] ),
Inventory[Available]
)
)

Thank you for the quick reply! This does work and I marked it as the solution.
