Max(Date) returns invalid expression

I have a table with field

  Date(Date#("ACCTG DATE (P0045)",'yyyyMMdd'),'YYYYMMDD') as "ACCTG DATE (P0045)"

 and I want to have a field to return latest date.

I used Max("ACCTG DATE (P0045)") and get invalid expression

Hope I can get some guidance

Thank you very much for your immediate help.

I have changed the script to Date#("ACCTG DATE (P0045)",'YYYYMMDD') as "ACCTG DATE (P0045)"

But when I apply max([ACCTG DATE (P0045]) I still have invalid expression unfortunately

In which chart object are you getting  invalid expression? Can you share a screenshot?

Hi @43918084 

You need another bracket max([ACCTG DATE (P0045)]).

If this doesn't work then please send a screenshot as @lorenzoconforti mentioned.
