Chose the newest date available

Hi All,

I am working to combine two tables. The first step I need to take is to filter the project_number by with the newest report date available.

The example below shows two different project numbers

The first one has the last report date as Q3 2022 - we need to capture that input

The second project_number has q4 of 2022 - we need to capture that input as well.

Essentially, I need to capture the latest known input for each project id.

Can someone help me with the logic on this one?

I'm not sure which functions would be the most efficient for this process. Any suggestions?

    You can use a Rank & Window tile with a MAX aggregation to get the most recent date. You can partition by the project_number to get the latest date for each project.
