Max(Collect formula
I'm trying to pull in the most recent date of a file, and it looks like =Max(Collect is the way to do it, but I'm having trouble with getting the formula to work.
Currently, I have
=MAX(COLLECT({Date of Recent Update}, {Parent Folder}, [Delivery Path]@row))
where Parent Folder and Delivery Path would be the reference to tie the two sheets/rows together.
As you can see in the 2nd screenshot, I'm getting an #INVALID COLUMN VALUE error, though the column is set to a Text/Number (I also tried it with a Date type, with the same error message)
In Excel, I'd use a MAXIFS, in case that helps. =MAXIFS(Date of Recent Update column, Parent Folder column, Delivery Path at row)
Any suggestions on making this formula work? Thanks!

I have tested your formula
"=MAX(COLLECT({Date of Recent Update}, {Parent Folder}, [Delivery Path]@row)),"
and it is working with my sheets. 😀

Interesting. No idea why it wasn't working before. I messed around a bit with the reference names and column names, and now it is working... thanks also for sharing your dashboard! That gives me a great idea for organizing this project a bit better :)
