Hi All,
I am trying to count values in columns without using specifc filter for 1 conditions how this can be done, this can be done quite easily using Grouping in SQL but not sure about Power BI:-
1. With single query how can i get total number of count for column1 WITHOUT USING FILTER ON ANY SPECIFIC VALUE, thus saying:-
a=4 , b=5 and c=2
2.With second query how can i count column2 based on column 1 WITHOUT USING FILTER ON ANY SPECIFIC VALUE of column1, so answer shud be
For column1=a, tt=2
For column1=a, ss=2
For Column1=b, gg=3
For Column1=b, rr=1
For Column1=b, tt=1
For Column1=c,ss=1
For Column1=c,ff=1
Column 1 | Column2 |
a | tt |
a | tt |
a | ss |
a | ss |
b | gg |
b | gg |
b | gg |
b | rr |
b | tt |
c | ss |
c | ff |
Thanks and Regards,

Create 2 measures, both will be simple COUNT.
Here's one, you do the other
Measure1 = COUNT('Table X'[Column 1])
For your first query, drag Column 1 and Measure 1 on to a table.
For your 2nd query, drag Column 1, Column 2 and Measure 2 on to another table
Hi ,
Thank you for quick respone on this. It did work well for first question but for second i tried to use this in the bar chart but apparently what ever gets dragged first in the "AXIS" section it rules the result in bar chart.
So it end up working like single level grouping instead of 2 level of grouping.
Thanks,
Raman
