countrows range measure

Hi all,

 

New to this so please excuse the ignorance. Trying to create a measurement to count the number of values in the ordervalue column between 2 values for example count the number of rows between £0 - £500, £501 - £1000, £1001 – £2000 and so on. Still new to PBI so the less complicated the better

 

Regards,

    1. Create an ancillary table Thresholds (no relationships) describing the ranges:

    Range MinVal MaxVal
    0-500 0 500
    500-1000 500 1000
    1000-2000 1000 2000

    make sure MinVal and MaxVal are of type number 

    2. Place Thresholds[Range] in a table visual

    3. Place this measure in the visual

    Measure =
    VAR minVal_ = SELECTEDVALUE ( Thresholds[MinVal] )
    VAR maxVal_ = SELECTEDVALUE ( Thresholds[MaxVal] )
    RETURN
        COUNTROWS (
            FILTER ( Table1, Table1[ordervalue] >= minVal_ && Table1[ordervalue] < maxVal_ )
        )

    Can you share the pbix? Or one with dummy data that reproduces the problem?
