Good morning,

In the column E "Geldig tot" there are dates. If you look at column A you see the same item codes (Artikelcode). Now I need to see only the newest date, so only one item code with the newest date. Is that possible to filter out and delete the rest?

Thank you for your time.

Excel Facts

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
In a separate column, let say F2:
Excel Formula:
=IFERROR(INDEX($A$2:$A$30,MATCH(0,COUNTIF($F$1:F1,$A$2:$A$30),0)),"")
G2:
Excel Formula:
=VLOOKUP($F2,$A$2:$B$30,2,0)
H2:
Excel Formula:
=VLOOKUP($F2,$A$2:$C$30,3,0)
J2:
Excel Formula:
=MAXIFS($E$2:$E$30,$A$2:$A$30,$F2)
I2:
Excel Formula:
=INDEX($D$2:$D$30,MATCH(1,($A$2:$A$30=$F2)*($E$2:$E$30=$J2),0))

Solution
Is that possible to filter out and delete the rest?

You did not mention what kind of solution you are after. Do you just want to know how to do it via menu commands (i.e. Sort table by Col A (ascending) & Col E (descending), then use the 'remove duplicates' feature to remove the duplicates in Col A) or are you wanting to automate is some way?

Thank you for your answers, this does the trick I needed.
Have a great day,

Romano
