How to get count based on the the filter selected.

Hi Guys,

 

Can you please help me how i will get the count based on the filter selected. I have month data like 1,2,3,4,5
if i select all it should give me result as "5" else based on the numbers of month selected it should give. 

 

If in filter, i have selected 1,4,5 then i am expecting result as 3. Please help me how i can achieve this based on the filter selection it should get me the result.  

 

Thanks.

  • Create a measure like this?

    NoSelected = CALCULATE(COUNT('Yourtable'[columnName]))

    where "Yourtable" is the table of your slicer and "columName" the column of the slicer.

      No it's giving the count of rows for each month. Let me explain once again as i told based on the month selected it should give the result. Only 5 output i am expecting the result based on the month selected like if only 1 month selected than 1,

      if 2 selecected than 2

      if 3 selecected than 3

      if 4 selecected than 4

      if 5 selecected than 5

       

      please do let me know how it can be acheived. 

  • Anonymous , simple count should work in that case

    COUNT('Table'[Month])

        Hi Anonymous 

         


        can you try this:

        Number of selected months = CALCULATE(distinctcount('Table'[Month]))

         


        Cheers,
