Lookup Max Value from another table while keeping Report Filter

Hello!

 

I am trying to look up the maximum "utilization category" in Table 1 for each "item" and bring it into Table 2 as a calculated column to use as a slicer. The challenge I am running into is that the report will have a Year slicer and I need to specifically pull in the maximum Utilization Category within the filtered year range.

 

Table 1 is structured as below:

ItemYearUtilization Category
120184
120192
120201
220181
220193
220202

 

Table 2 is structured as below. I have left out unnecessary columns, but know that the Item column may have duplicate item numbers.

 

Item

1
1
2
2

 

For example, if the Year is filtered from 2018-2019, the resulting column in  Table 2 would be:

 

ItemMax Utilization Category
14
14
23
23

 

If the filter was from 2019-2020, the resulting table would be

ItemMax Utilization Category
12
12
23
23

 

Is this possible? Thanks in advance for any help!

You may create the following column in table 2, but there is not enough details in table 2, the unnecessary columns are important when you create the relationship between the two tables. Please add more to the table 2 sample. You should have a year column since you want to filter by year.
