Hi Power BI master around the world,

I have been so active recently because getting interested with this DAX. I have a very difficult measure that i am not sure if it is possible to do in Power BI.

Let say i have this table

Column Name

Hydrogenxxx, Lithiumyyy, Natriumzzz

Hydrogenaaa, Natriumbbb, Natriumccc

Hydrogenaaa

Lithium<ddd

Natriumccc

Natriumeee

Lithiumfff

So there are blank rows.

I would like to identify how many times occurence of Natrium in this column.

1st row : 1

2nd row : 2

6th row : 1

7th row : 1

There is "," (comma) delimeter between each string.

Any idea? Thanks

Hi dannytan1112
Please refer to attached sample file with the solution

Count = VAR CurrentElelent = SELECTEDVALUE ( Elements[Element] ) RETURN SUMX ( VALUES ( 'Table'[Column Name] ), VAR String = 'Table'[Column Name] VAR Items = SUBSTITUTE ( String, ", ", "|" ) VAR Length = PATHLENGTH ( Items ) VAR T1 = GENERATESERIES ( 1, Length, 1 ) VAR T2 = SELECTCOLUMNS ( T1, "@Item", PATHITEM ( Items, [Value] ) ) VAR T3 = FILTER ( T2, CONTAINSSTRING ( [@Item], CurrentElelent ) ) RETURN COUNTROWS ( T3 ) )

hi dannytan1112

you may also create a column like this:

COUNT = (LEN([Column Name]) - LEN(SUBSTITUTE([Column Name], "Natrium", "")))/7

tried and it worked like this:

Hi tamerj1

Ihave 2 table in my Power BI report B-Details and SPResult. SP result table is a stored procedure and will change dynamically with parameters. I want to create a new table from this in which it should filter Name and Country from B-Details and SPResult. Now after filtering this we have a uniquekey in B-Details. Now in the new table for each UniqueKey we have to get all the filtered values from SPResult table. So in the new table UniqueKey key row will be duplicated with as much rows we have in SPResult. Can you help me how to fix this?

This is the dax that I tried but it's not working.

CombinedTable =
VAR ProductionType = FILTER(RELATEDTABLE('MarketPlan'), 'MarketPlan'[ProductionTypeCode])
VAR PeriodNO = FILTER(RELATEDTABLE('MarketPlan'), 'MarketPlan'[PeriodNum])
VAR FilteredBD = FILTER(ALL('SP_Result'),
'SP_Result'[ProductionTypeCode] = ProductionType &&
'SP_Result'[PeriodNum] = PeriodNO
)

VAR UniqueKeys = SUMMARIZE('MarketPlan', 'MarketPlan'[UniqueKey])

RETURN
ADDCOLUMNS(
FILTER(UniqueKeys, TRUE),
"MarketPlanData", SUMMARIZE(
'MarketPlan',
'MarketPlan'[UniqueKey],
'MarketPlan', // Include all columns from 'MarketPlan'
'SP_Result'[modeoftransportcode],
'SP_Result'[modeoftransportname],
'SP_Result'[planningmarketcode],
'SP_Result'[planningmarketname],
'SP_Result'[InshopWeek],
'SP_Result'[percentageVal]
)
)

Hi tamerj1 I have sent the Two table data, Here the tables are filtered based on ProductionTypecode and PeriodNum from both tables, after filtering each row from PlanDetails has a UniqueKey row, This should result in a table where each UniqueKey row from "PlanDetails" is duplicated with all the data from "Bought Details" and combined with the filtered data from "StoredprocedureResult" for each row based on the specified conditions(from Stored Procedure, the columns we need from SP result are MOTcode MOTname planningmarketcode InshopWeek percentageVal LLT InshopWeek - Copy ISW-Year ISW-Week TOD TODMonth)
