Hi all,
I'm new to Power BI and DAX, so thanks in advance for helping.
I have a table named RUM:
| date | |
| crash@test.com | 2020-08-26 |
| crash@test.com | 2020-08-27 |
| test@dummy.com | 2020-08-27 |
| test@dummy.com | 2020-08-27 |
dummy@dotcom.com | 2020-10-10 |
dummy@dotcom.com | 2020-10-10 |
kim@dot.com | 2020-01-01 |
I need to get number of distinct dates for each email address while at same time filttering some of emails.
From the table above result should be:
| unique dates | |
| crash@test.com | 2 |
| test@dummy.com | 1 |
I have following DAX but I'm not totally sure if it gives the right kind of result.
unique dates =
CALCULATE(
DISTINCTCOUNT(RUM[date]),
FILTER(
RUM,
RUM[email] <> "dummy@dotcom.com" &&
RUM[email] <> "kim@dot.com"
)
)
I know there are multiple ways to do this and would prefer the simplest. Any help and comments will be highly appreciated.

I do not see any issue with what you have in your calculation. Another way to do it is:
unique dates =
COUNTROWS(
DISTINCT(
SELECTCOLUMNS(
FILTER(RUM,RUM[email]<>"dummy@dotcom.com" && RUM[email]<>"kim@dot.com"),
"date",[date]
)
)
)
@CAPSTALKER , Try like
unique dates = CALCULATE(
DISTINCTCOUNT(RUM[date]),
FILTER(RUM, not( RUM[email] in {"dummy@dotcom.com" , "kim@dot.com" })))
