How to filter the latest value of one data entry

Hey,

I already searched for my problem, but I couldn't make it work.

I have this table what you see on the bottom. I have to build the sum of amount but just the latest value. 

E.G. : Material-No 26 had in 2011 an amount of 0 and Mat-No 384 in May 2005 an amount of 3 so the sum is 3. every other amount for the same materialnumber that is earlier is no longer relevant. My problem is that I just can take the newest value of every material-no and need to build a sum. 

Material-NoYearMonthAmountValue

Hi,

I think you need to use FirstSortedValue, so something like the attached (you may need to do something about year/month & aggregation, depends on your underlying data).

Cheers,

Chris.

Hi,

Maybe if you share some screenshots of what is not working that would help.

Cheers,

Chris.
