Adding a column to a calculatedtable groupby

I created calculatedtable "B" with groupby function from another table "A".

Table "A" has a date field.

I'd like to add the most recent dates from table "A" for each group in table "B".

 

 Any ideas on how this coule be done?

yes, sorry

Column = CALCULATE(MAX(TableA[Date]), FILTER(ALL(TableA), TableA[group]=EARLIER(TableB[group])) )

Just to make sure I'm understanding, in this scenario:

TableA = Original table

TableB = CalculatedTable
"group" = field TableB is groupedby

Is that right?

the date field doesn't exist in tableB, so if I change that to:

 

Column = CALCULATE(MAX(TableA[Date]), FILTER(ALL(TableB), TableB[group]=EARLIER(TableA[group])) )

 

I get the following error: 

 

"A single value for column 'group' in table 'TableA' cannot be determined. This can happen when a measure formula refers to a column that contains many values without specifying an aggregation such as min, max, count, or sum to get a single result."

 

Thanks in advance for any other insights!
