Count feature changes data on Table
I created at table from the data imported and whenever I chose the count feature it replaces the actual data with a "1" in order to provide a total count. Is there a way I can have the column maintain the data while still providing a total Count?
Example:
I have a column of Employee names, and I want to know how many employees there are total. If I turn on the Count feature, it replaces each name with a "1" and gives the total number at the bottom, but I still want to see the Employee Name for each record.
hi, beardsleys
This relates to the row context and filter context in calculation
You could use COUNTA Function to create a measure, then drag Employee Name and this measure into visual together
For example:
basic data
Measure = CALCULATE(COUNTA(Table1[Name]))
Result:
