Hi, new to power bi and try to learn from hands-on task.

 

Sample data:

User_IDTime_dateApp_Categoryloc_Type
0001'Music''Residence'
0002'Music''Hotel'
0003'Travel''Restaurant'



Table 2 (created from the visulasation page, cross join from 2 columns from the different table)

App_Categoryloc_type
MusicResidence
MusicHotel
MusicResturant
TravelResidence
TravelHotel
TravelResturant

 

What I want to archieve is to add a count column that count the number of ourrance of both columns in table 2 in table 1:

App_Categoryloc_typeCount
MusicResidence1
MusicHotel1
MusicResturant0
TravelResidence0
TravelHotel0
TravelResturant1


Can anyone give me a hint on how to do it? Thanks!

Thank you for your response, I figured it out after reading a few related post. If anyone is wonder, this is my solution:

Count =
CALCULATE(
COUNTROWS(App_usage_trace),
FILTER(
App_usage_trace,
App_usage_trace[Base_station_type] = 'POI and App Cate'[Most_POI] &&
App_usage_trace[App_Category] = 'POI and App Cate'[App Category]
)
)
