DistintCount Different two Columns

Hi,

 

I have two columns from the data file as below.

 

CompanyCode
ABC A
ASDB
ABDA
ABC A
ASDC
ABC B
ABDA
ABC D
ABEA

 

I want to make a count on two columns to return a table below or a similar visual which can show the following result on the desktop. I wonder if anyone knows how?

 

Number of CompanyCount Number of Code
13
12
21

 

 

Cheers

Jimmy

    Anonymous , You have display count of both columns with Company in viusal .

     

    So in visual add

    Company (Unsummarized)

    Company (Count) Or use measure  Count(Table[Company])

    Code(Count) Or use measure  Count(Table[Code])

      Thanks for your reply.

       

      I tried the way you suggested however it won't have the visual like what's in my second table.

       

      It will only give me a list of all companies and the count of their code accordingly, like below

    Anonymous what is the logic of the count of the first and 2nd column, sample data you showed has 9 rows but none of the total count in the expected output count to 9. You need to provide the logic for the count, is it a distinct count or what?

      Thanks for your reply.

       

      The reason I was doing it is because I wanted to see the number of the companies are having 3 codes, 2 codes, 1 code or none.
