Month Filter auto select the latest month

Hi All,

I know that Edit Sheet >Actions >Select Value matching search criteria can control the filter. 

My data format as below.

Load

Date#([Month],'YYYYMM') as [Month].

In other expression:

Count({Month ={'$(vMaxMonthYear)'}>} distinct [Student]). 

vMaxMonthYear=Date(max([Month]), 'YYYYMM').

Which can count the latest month Student.

However, I don't know how to write a expression to auto select latest month in the Month filter

Hi,

Create variable like

vMaxMonthYear->=max(month)

expression

Count({Month ={"$(=vMaxMonthYear)"}>} distinct [Student]).

Hi, @eddywong71 
Is your [Month] field before creating the new [Month] field a Date field?


It is also important to check that the way in which YYYYMM was defined is not repeating the date value multiple times. If the formatting of the new [Month] field is correct in this format YYYYMM , the creation of the variable is correct.

So it would be just adjusting your expression that is missing the < sign within the set analysis.


Count({<Month ={'$(vMaxMonthYear)'}>} distinct [Student])
