Counting recommendations for a project to display null

I have a recommendation SP list that feeds off a project list.


I have 2 count formula that counts the # of opened or Closed recommendations for a project.

But, on the main page, when I try this it will filter out the projects with no recommendations, which is not what I want. I want it to show a 0 or leave blank. My code isn't working correctly, can I get some advice?

I'm thinking if I need to create a new column, and write another formula.

 Thoughts ( if recommendation > 0, count row, else "0"  )

CALCULATE(COUNT(EARecs[Closure Accepted]),EARecs[Closure Accepted]="Yes")



CALCULATE(COUNT('EARecs'[Closure Accepted]), EARecs[Closure Accepted] <> "Yes"

Hi, @nerdyplayer 

Your idea is correct, you can try the following DAX expressions, create four measures

 

Open Recs Count = CALCULATE(COUNT(EARecs[Closure Accepted]), EARecs[Closure Accepted] = "Yes")

Closed Recs Count = CALCULATE(COUNT(EARecs[Closure Accepted]), EARecs[Closure Accepted] <> "Yes")

Open Recs Display = IF([Open Recs Count] > 0, [Open Recs Count], 0)

Closed Recs Display = IF([Closed Recs Count] > 0, [Closed Recs Count], 0)
