Computes the maximum value found in all row values in a column. Inputs can be Integer, Decimal, or Datetime. |
- When used in a
pivot transform, the function is computed for each instance of the value specified in the group parameter. See Pivot Transform. - If a row contains a missing or null value, it is not factored into the calculation.
- If no numeric values are found in the source column, the function returns a null value.
For a version of this function computed over a rolling window of rows, see ROLLINGMAX Function.
Datetime inputs to this function return Unixtime values.

function_col_ref
Name of the column the values of which you want to calculate the maximum. Inputs must be Integer, Decimal, or Datetime values.

NOTE: If the input is in Datetime type, the output is in unixtime format. You can wrap these outputs in the DATEFORMAT function to generate the results in the appropriate Datetime format. See DATEFORMAT Function. |
- Literal values are not supported as inputs.
- Multiple columns and wildcards are not supported.
