Hey there Reader, This week on How To Use Power BI, we're having a quick look at the MAX function. It does exactly what it says on the box... it calculates the maximum value in a numeric column. This post also explores how the MAX calculation interacts with other visuals and charts that may be on your report page, but also how you can make it NOT interact with them (because sometimes that's what you need). That involves the ALL and CALCULATE functions as well (which we also have posts about to help you hook it all up together)! The MAX DAX function, with written and a 4 min video instructions!
