Suppressing Rows based on an Expression (Measure) Value

Hello -

I am building a straight table for a user activity report.  I want to be able to see only the last login date by user.  Here is what my notional table looks like.

username and LoginDate are dimensions.  The other two are measures - I've included the expression in "".

usernameLoginDateMax Login Date /  "MAX(TOTAL <username> LoginDate) "Date Test / "=IF(LoginDate = MAX(TOTAL <username> LoginDate), 1, 0)"
Agent18/3/20218/3/20211
Agent17/31/20218/3/20210
Agent16/15/20218/3/20210
Agent15/1/20218/3/20210
Agent28/2/20218/2/20211
Agent27/5/20218/2/20210
Agent37/31/20217/31/20211
Agent37/21/20217/31/20210
Agent37/11/20217/31/20210

 

What I want to be able to do is suppress those rows where the Date Test value is "0" (I can change this to a Null value if needed), so the table would look like:

usernameLoginDateMax Login Date /  "MAX(TOTAL <username> LoginDate) "Date Test / "=IF(LoginDate = MAX(TOTAL <username> LoginDate), 1, 0)"
Agent18/3/20218/3/20211
Agent28/2/20218/2/20211
Agent37/31/20217/31/20211

 

I am using an Enterprise version of Qlik Sense and do not have access to the load scripts, so whatever needs to be done needs to be done within the Table.

Any thoughts or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Mitchell

Hi,

what you need is a function called "FirstSortedValue". 

Create a table with Username as Dimension and below expression.

Date(FirstSortedValue(LoginDate,LoginDate*-1))
