DAX Function Help

Hello,

My requirement is to calculate max ExtractDate(Column Name) for each month in dataset after filtering the dataset based on user selected report parameter in Power BI Desktop.

For Example:  

Dataset  :

Plant       Component        material     Month      ExtractDate     Forecast

P1              C1                      M1           201601        5-Jan-16          10

P1              C1                      M2           201601        8-Jan-16          15

P2              C1                      M3           201601        10-Jan-16         20

 

If user select Plant = P1 and Component = C1 and Material = ALL then Max(ExtractDate) should be 8-Jan-16 But I am getting 10-Jan-16

 

How to calculate Max Date dynamically affter filtering the dataset by user selected parameter.

Thanks in Advance for help. Swift help is appreciated

 

Regards,

Mahesh

What visualization are you using for ExtractDate?

 

I created a measure with your formula, used a card for it and slicers for Plant and Component and when I select P1, the max date is the eighth as expected.

DAX is easy, CALCULATE makes DAX hard...

Thanks very much for your response !

 
Could you share the measure formula which you applied to get Max date.
 
Thanks 

I used your formula MAX([ExtractDate]).

MAX(ExtractDate) will calculate for entire data in Dataset But I need to calculate for every month.
For Example :

 

Plant       Component        material     Month      ExtractDate     Forecast

P1              C1                      M1           201601        5-Jan-16          10

P1              C1                      M2           201601        8-Jan-16          15

P2              C1                      M3           201601        10-Jan-16         20

P1              C1
