Hi,
I need a measure to count the distinct number of active accounts in any given time period. This has been easy in the past where I have only had one table for sales data. However with this new model, there are 4 seperate sales tables. Each has a relationship to the "Debtors" table with a unique key for each sales table (eg [ACCNO] for Direct sales, [Customer ID (ALM)] for ALM).
In the below table, I have made a measure for each seperate sales table, with a distinct count of account numbers within each. EG:
Distributions (ALM) = distinctcount('Sales Data (ALM)'[Customer ID (ALM)]),
This works fine when only looking at one sales source, but i wish to count the unique number of accounts across all 4
Adding the 4 measures together as is doesn't work, as it creates double ups if an account has purchased from more than one source, and the below test measure has a simlar effect.
Test = COUNTROWS(
DISTINCT(
UNION(
VALUES( 'Sales Data (Direct)'[ACCNO]),
VALUES( 'Sales Data (ALM)'[Customer ID (ALM)] ),
VALUES( 'Sales Data (LMX)'[Cust. No] ),
VALUES( 'Sales Data (Paramount)'[Company])
)))
Can anyone help?
In the below the answer I am after is 38, however I just can't seem to get there.
