Hello everyone,
It should be simple but I'm a little confused
I have an event table ID_PERSON, CODE_EVENT (Arrival and Exit) , DATE_EVENT
I need to count the people still present with a contextual period filter.
If I filter by period I have people who arrived outside the selected period but are still present.
Thank you for your leads 🙂

Hi,
Please check the attached pbix file.
I am not sure if I understood your question correctly, because I could not know how your data model looks like, however, I tried to create a sample pbix file like the attached.
The DAX measure is in the attached pbix file.
Present ID count measure: =
VAR newtable =
ADDCOLUMNS (
DISTINCT ( 'ID'[ID] ),
"@arrival", CALCULATE ( MAXX ( FILTER ( Data, Data[Event] = "Arrival" ), Data[Date] ) ),
"@exit", CALCULATE ( MAXX ( FILTER ( Data, Data[Event] = "Exit" ), Data[Date] ) )
)
VAR filternewtable =
FILTER (
newtable,
[@arrival] <= MAX ( 'Calendar'[Date] )
&& [@exit] >= MIN ( 'Calendar'[Date] )
)
RETURN
COUNTROWS ( filternewtable )

Hi 😅,
Sorry again to ask another question but I still stuck .
In the case I need to have the second highest max arrival date How can i do that ? I tried with RANKX , TOPN without sucess, some advice in this case ?
VAR newtable = ADDCOLUMNS ( DISTINCT ( 'ID'[ID] ), "@arrival", CALCULATE ( MAXX ( FILTER ( Data, Data[Event] = "Arrival" ), Data[Date] ) ), "@exit", CALCULATE ( MAXX ( FILTER ( Data, Data[Event] = "Exit" ), Data[Date] ) ) )
thanks again
