I need to replicate the data shown below in an Excel snippet over in a table in Powerw BI (PBI).
My PBI table has multiple columns, two of which are "Term" and "FACID"; in addition, I have created a measure in PBI titled "LatestTerm".
I want to create a new column in my PBI table titled TimesInLatestTerm that counts the number of times each FACID occurs when the Term = LatestTerm. I want this value returned for all occurences of FACID regardless of if the adjacent term is or isnt equal to LatestTerm.
I have experimented with formulas in a number of the posts with "COUNTIFS", but none of them produces the counts I am looking for as seen in the Excel output.

You cannot measure a measure directly. Either materialize it first, or create a separate measure that implements the entire business logic.
You cannot (meaningfully) create a calculated column or calculated table from a measure.
