Counta with conditions

L-P — Mon, 06 Jun 2022 13:30:38 GMT

Morning Guys, hope its all well!

I have a query where I need a Count of employee role id's. There is a column with the role id and another one with the role names.

I need to be able to do the count based on, for example.

When the measure Counts the total of role ids associated to a particular employee name

Column Role Names

Group Leader

Member

Business unit Leader

In some cases Business unit leader and group leader should considered as the same.

I'll appreciate if anyone has some feedback.

Have a great day 👍

L-P You can use the pattern COUNTAX(FILTER(...),...) or CALCULATE(COUNTA(...),...)

Hi L-P,

If you would like to count role id for different role names, you may try this Measure.

Count on roles names = CALCULATE(COUNT('Table'[role id]),ALLEXCEPT('Table','Table'[role names]))

If you would like to count role id for one specific role name, you can try this Measure and make some changes per your needs.

Count for one role name = CALCULATE(COUNT('Table'[role id]),FILTER( ALL('Table'),'Table'[role names]="lisa"))

Sample data:

The result:
