I am new to Tableau. I have found several answers here but I can't make them apply. It may be that I just don't know enough yet. I just want the max date to show one time. I have tried {fixed: max([Date])} but it keeps giving me the max date of the entire table, not by Project Title. I have also tried the solution from Tableau community called Max Group_AM and to no avail. Here is a screenshot of my real data and results. I created a dummy sheet to see if someone could help. I've been working on this off and on (mostly on)for 3 weeks. It's for work and I'm stumped.Format of tableau report.

Cannot attach the workbook. Here's Dummy Data

Are you using tableau desktop? Edit your calculated field to group by "Project Title".

{FIXED [Project Title]: MAX([Insert Date])}

For more information around Level of Detail(LOD) expressions have a look at the below link:
