Count Unique Values based on another column, repeat value rows

Hello, i have one table. Same client name can repeat 50 times, but different records based on other rows. How can count the number of clients, with all blank rows in another column? some clients can have blank rows and non blank rows. But i want to see clients with all blank rows and no non blank rows in another column

    Hi mstew55 ,

    I create a table as you mentioned.

    Next I create a calculated column.

    IsBlankColumnB = IF('Table'[ColumnB]=BLANK(), 1, 0)

    Then I create a new table and a calculated column.

    ClientSummary = 
    SUMMARIZE(
        'Table',
        [ClientName],
        "TotalRows", COUNTROWS('Table'),
        "BlankRows", SUM('Table'[IsBlankColumnB])
    )
    AllBlankRows = IF([TotalRows] = [BlankRows], 1, 0)

    Finally I think you can create another measure and it will give you what you want.

    CountAllBlankClients = 
    CALCULATE(
        COUNTROWS(ClientSummary),
        ClientSummary[AllBlankRows] = 1
    )

    As you can see some clients have mutilple products, with sales and no sales. I need to identify clients with no sales regardless of product.

    Based on my example, it should be 1 client with No sales

    Awesome Sauce!!!! WOrks perfectly! Is it possible to do it in a column, to indicate which client by row, did not have a sale?

      Hi mstew55 ,

      I think you could try creating a new table to accomplish what you need.

      Firstly I create a table as you mentioned.

      Then you can choose to create a new table and here is the DAX code.

      NewTable = 
      VAR _ClientsWithSales = 
          SUMMARIZE(
              FILTER(
                  'Table',
                  'Table'[Sold] = "y"
              ),
              'Table'[Client]
          )
      RETURN
      DISTINCT(
          FILTER(
              'Table',
              NOT('Table'[Client] IN _ClientsWithSales)
          )
      )

      Again you can choose the form you want under Report view.

      Hi mstew55 ,

      Like I mentioned in my earlier reply.

      This is not a Calculated column, it is recreating a new table.
