Calculated column to evaluate values across columns

Hi guys,

 

The below table shows the programs that each ID (Column Name: CR Number) has been served in:

I want to create a calculated column using DAX indicates if the ID was served in only one program or more than one. For example: first row shows the applicant was served in three diffrent programs while last one was only served in one program.

 

thank you,

regards,

Hi @salafoo 

Probably it would be best to unpivot the data to have that info in a column instead of on several ones. If you want to keep this structure:

New column =
VAR count_ = 1 * ( Table1[Served in TWS] = "Yes" ) + 1 * ( Table1[Served in BCS] = "Yes" ) // and so on with the other columns...
RETURN
    IF ( count_ = 1, "Served in 1", "Served in more than 1" )

 

Please mark the question solved when done and consider giving a thumbs up if posts are helpful.
