Visualising based on two level of calculation
Hi All,
I have fact table as below:
| Person | Location | Date |
| A | a | 1/01/2020 |
| A | b | 2/01/2020 |
| A | c | 2/02/2020 |
| A | d | 3/02/2020 |
| D | a | 1/01/2020 |
| B | a | 2/01/2020 |
| B | b | 2/02/2020 |
| C | c | 3/02/2020 |
| C | d | 4/02/2020 |
We have 4 person who works in different locations I need to calculate the number of locations they are working in dynamicaly (as I need to put a date slicer)
| person | number of locations |
| A | 4 |
| B | 2 |
| C | 2 |
| D | 1 |
But what I want to visualize as the final step is the frequency of the number of locations as below:
All in a dynamic manner so I can put a date Slicer
Thanks
SadStatue , Not very clear. But see if binning and segmentation can help

You, my friend, will need a disconnected table. It's the only way that I know of to do what you want to do. In general, to use a measure in that way, you need to use the Disconnected Table Trick as this article demonstrates: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Solving-Attendance-with-the-Disconnected-Table-Trick/ba-p/279563
Basically, you need a disconnected table to be your axis and then your measure forms the relationship between the disconnected tables. It's a bit of a mind bender to wrap your head around the first time but once you get it, it will be second nature...famous last words.

SadStatue - What is the x-axis in your graph represent? Is that the location (a b c d)?

Helper II
It is the second column of the second table "Number of location". it shows that a person is took part in how many location.
I hope I could describe it!- Greg_Deckler

SadStatue - OK, I have mocked this up, seems to work. Requires a bi-directional relationship. Still not sure if it is what you are looking for. See attached PBIX file, you want Page 38, Table (38) and Table (38a).
@ me in your response.
