Finding the most recent value in another table

Hi everyone,

 

I'm trying to find a solution for the following issue.

 

I have two tables:

Salesinvoice (salesdate, articlenumber)

Purchaseinvoice (purchasedate, articlenumber, purchaseprice)

 

I'm trying to create a measure in Salesinvoice that, based on the salesdate, selects the latest purchaseprice.

So, the salesdate >= purchasedate && MAX(purchasedate).

 

Can someone please help me?

Hi @Anonymous

 

You may use below measure. Show the simplified sample as below:

LatestPrice =
CALCULATE (
    MAX ( Purchaseinvoice[purchaseprice] ),
    TOPN (
        1,
        FILTER (
            Purchaseinvoice,
            Purchaseinvoice[articlenumber] = MAX ( Salesinvoice[articlenumber] )
                && Purchaseinvoice[purchasedate] <= MAX ( Salesinvoice[salesdate] )
        ),
        Purchaseinvoice[purchasedate], DESC
    )
)
