Calculate with multiple criteria

Hi All,    First post, so apologies if it doesn't make a huge amount of sense, but I'm really hoping someone can help me.    Relatively new to DAX, but very familiar with Excel, so most of my log...

Hi Pravin, 

 

Thanks for your input, it's much appreciated. 

 

Unfortunatley this didn't quite work the way I expected it to. 

 

The result I'm looking for is to show the number of transactions that contain both Food and Beer. The result that your suggestion put forward, gives me a number of the transactions that contain either food or beer and totals them up. 

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thanks, 

Ben

hi lyonslat 

 

Create below measure

 

Flag =
var food=CALCULATE(COUNT(Sheet1[profit_center_id]),allexcept(Sheet1,Sheet1[profit_center_id]),Sheet1[revenue_category_name]="FOOD")
Var beer=CALCULATE(COUNT(Sheet1[profit_center_id]),allexcept(Sheet1,Sheet1[profit_center_id]),Sheet1[revenue_category_name]="BEER")
return
IF(food>0 && beer>0,1,0)
 
And add this measure to visual level filter of table and set it to 1.
 
 
 
Thanks & regards,

    You could use INTERSECT in the following

    MeasureFoodAndBeer = 
VAR _FoodChecks = CALCULATETABLE (VALUES ( TableBill[check_number] ), TableBill[revenue_category_name] = "Beer")
VAR _BeerChecks = CALCULATETABLE (VALUES ( TableBill[check_number] ), TableBill[revenue_category_name] = "Food")

RETURN
 COUNTROWS(INTERSECT(_BeerChecks, _FoodChecks))

    If you want to break this down and test it, you can materialise each of the tables by creating a table (New Table) with the CALCULATETABLE code. You can then look at the table in data view.
