DAX - DISTINCTCOUNT or COUNT

Hi,

 

I have a table in PowerBI and would like to calculate the COUNT of ShipmentHouseBillId for all the DTD_Status.

ShipmentHouseBillId is a numerical value that can be duplicated across different DTD_Status. For example, ShipmentHouseBillId=1429 appeared in both of the "Late" and "On-Time" status.

 

I would like to calculate the DISTINCTCOUNT for ShipmentHouseBilllId regardless to the DTD_Status. In other words, I want the result below to display the counting = 5 instead of 4.

Already tried ALL, ALLEXCEPT, ALLSELECTED in DAX but seems not working, can anyone assist?

Thanks!

 

 

Best regards,

Emily

    distinctcount:  Counts the number of distinct values in a column.
    count: Counts the number of cells in a column that contain non-blank values.

     

    Here  is a demo

    If help , try measures as below:

    Total =
    COUNTROWS ( SUMMARIZE ( Range, Range[DTD_Status], Range[ShipmentHouseBillId] ) )

    Try like


    CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT (Table[ShipmentHouseBilllId],all(Table)))

    Or
    CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT (Table[ShipmentHouseBilllId],allselected(Table)))
