Hi, I need a help to create a colunm in DAX.
The colunm "How many different hour" need to count how many different hours I have per "Type", for example:
Type A have 2 different hours (20:20:53 and 22:15:41) so the colunm "How many different hour" bring me 2.
Type B have 3 different hours (19:45:22, 08:12:00 and 12:34:56) so the colunm "How many different hour" bring me 3.
ROW | Hour | Type | How many different hour |
1 | 20:20:53 | A | 2 |
2 | 20:20:53 | A | 2 |
3 | 20:20:53 | A | 2 |
4 | 22:15:41 | A | 2 |
5 | 22:15:41 | A | 2 |
6 | 22:15:41 | A | 2 |
7 | 22:15:41 | A | 2 |
8 | 22:15:41 | A | 2 |
9 | 22:15:41 | A | 2 |
10 | 19:45:22 | B | 3 |
11 | 19:45:22 | B | 3 |
12 | 08:12:00 | B | 3 |
13 | 08:12:00 | B | 3 |
14 | 08:12:00 | B | 3 |
15 | 12:34:56 | B | 3 |
16 | 12:34:56 | B | 3 |
17 | 12:34:56 | B | 3 |

Hi @Anonymous ,
Here are the steps you can follow:
1. Create calculated column.
Flag =
var _table1=
SUMMARIZE('Table','Table'[Type],'Table'[Hour])
return
COUNTX(
FILTER(_table1,
[Type]=EARLIER('Table'[Type])),[Hour])
2. Result:

Thanks a lot.
Not sure if this is the most efficient solution but try this as calculated column,
CalculatedColumn =
var _Value = 'Table'[Type]
var _Table =
FILTER(
'Table',
'Table'[Type] = _Value
)
var _Result =
CALCULATE(
DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[Hour]),
_Table
)
return _Result
Hello @HassanAshas
Doesn't work, appears this message: The expression refers to multiple columns. Multiple columns cannot be converted to a scalar value.
