Hi Preethi,

 

Here is what you need to do, change the variable to static type

Now put the last function, now use the variable. In this example I am doing last as Year which is 2030

Hi @Abhishek Chaturvedi 

Thank you for your response

This works fine for a date column. But we have created a week column to calculate weeks for every quarter value like ‘Q1-W01’

how to get last value from this?

In that case with some tweaks you can use MAX (as long as you don't mix week numbers from 2 years)
