Not getting the max expected value

Hello to all

 

I was creating the following calculated table:

Table 2 = 
ADDCOLUMNS (
SUMMARIZE ( 'Table A'; 'Table A'[issueid]; 'Table A'[Release] ; Table A'[LastRelease]);
"Last Date"; CALCULATE ( MAX ( 'Table A'[created] ) )
)

 

Where Table A is the one in the attached image.

 

The problem is that for issuedid 10544 I'm getting not the last value based on created but the one before that. 

In this case instead of getting 01/08/2017 15:54:01 I'm getting 01/08/2017 15:53:33 shich is not the last.

 

What am I doing wrong?

 

Thanks

Is the image your source table or output table? There is a possibility that you may need to use GROUPBY versus SUMMARIZE.

@Greg_Deckler it is the source. Groupby using issuedid?

Any way that you can post the data your posted in an image as text? I really don't want to type all that in order to get this out.

This should solve the issue.

Thanks @abhishekpati86, but not exactly, because I want the last created date for an issueid, and in your solution I have 4 entries to issueid 10544. 

I think you are talking about the below similar issue. I hope it helps.

Hello @abhishekpati86
I was just testing you solution from the other post, but I have still not the solution.

 

First I can not add more columns (or at least doens't know how);

Second Lastdate function returns only the date, and I need the datetime. (the original value in the column)

 

How can I overcome this?

Create a measure as shown in the image below and it will solve your problem.

@abhishekpati86, Sorry for the late reply, easter break.

 

It is not working, or at least I'm not getting to the desire result, because it is giving me the MAX date from all the table and not by issueid.

Maybe I'm creating the measure in the wrong place?

 

@Greg_Deckler, did you have the chance to see the problem?

 

Struggling with max that is not max and LastDate that only gives me the "date" part.

 

Many thanks to both
