Help with ISBLANK function

medwards — Wed, 08 Feb 2023 16:01:35 GMT

Hope someone can help with this ISBLANK function:

# Tables with no person assigned = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(responsibility[table_id]),(responsibility[role_id]="Engineer" && ISBLANK(responsibility[user_id])))

It is currently not returning a number, so I must have done something wrong here.

Appreciate any help!

medwards , seem fine, need data to test

Try like this

# Tables with no person assigned = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(responsibility[table_id]),Filter(responsibility, responsibility[role_id]="Engineer" && ISBLANK(responsibility[user_id])))

If this does not help
Can you share sample data and sample output in table format? Or a sample pbix after removing sensitive data.

Hi, medwards

You can try the following methods.

Sample data:

Measure:

# Tables with no person assigned = CALCULATE ( DISTINCTCOUNT ( responsibility[table_id] ), FILTER ( ALL ( responsibility ), responsibility[role_id] = "Engineer" && ISBLANK ( responsibility[user_id] ) ) )

Measure = CALCULATE ( DISTINCTCOUNT ( responsibility[table_id] ), FILTER ( ALL ( responsibility ), responsibility[role_id] = "Engineer" && responsibility[user_id] = BLANK() ) )

Is this the result you expect?

Thanks for the various solutions. For some reason, the formulas are not capturing the blank values. I'm trying different fields besides user_id like user_lastname but still not recognizing blanks. Very strange

Hi, medwards

Can you provide sample data for testing? Sensitive information can be removed in advance. What kind of expected results do you expect? You can also show it with pictures or Excel. I look forward to your response.
