Count per category

Hi, 

 

I want to show the number of accounts that use our different applications: 

 

This is how our data model is set up: 

 

Which measure should I use to have the number of these accounts and not the sum of volumes in the facttable?

 

thanks for your help!

    Hi pbi-bene ,

    Please try the following methods and check if they can solve your problem:

    1.Create the simple table.

    2.Create the new measure to sum Volumes.

     

    Measure = SUM('FactTable'[Volumes])

     

     

    3.Create the new measure to count account per application.

     

    count account per application = 
if(
    ISINSCOPE('FactTable'[Account]),
    SUM('FactTable'[Volumes]), 
    CALCULATE(
        DISTINCTCOUNT(FactTable[Account]),
        filter(ALLSELECTED('FactTable'),'FactTable'[Application] = SELECTEDVALUE('FactTable'[Application]) && [Measure] > 0)
    )
)

     

    4.Drag the count account measure into the matrix visual Values. Edit the Row subtotals.

    5.The result is shown below.
