I have the following filters on the dashboard:
I have used a funnel visual below
I am struggling and trying to calculate the number of learners who are enrolled for 2024, the column name is "Year_Enrolled" but when I use the following dax measure:
Enroled = CALCULATE (
DISTINCTCOUNT ( Learner[id] ), Learner[Date_Approved_Scholar_Application] <> BLANK () )
+ CALCULATE (
DISTINCTCOUNT ( Learner[id] ), Learner[Date_Approved_Sibling_Application] <> BLANK () )
)
it does not allow ingore the commencement_year filter shown above, so it filtered based on the commencement_year and I want it to ignore that. Therefore I tried using the following dax measure:
Enroled =
CALCULATE (
DISTINCTCOUNT ( Learner[id] ),
Learner[Date_Approved_Scholar_Application] <> BLANK (),
FILTER ( Learner, Learner[Year_Enrolled] = 2024 )
)
+ CALCULATE (
DISTINCTCOUNT ( Learner[id] ),
Learner[Date_Approved_Sibling_Application] <> BLANK (),
FILTER ( Learner, Learner[Year_Enrolled] = 2024 )
)
But still it does not ignore the commencement_year filter, I only want the Enroled to be filtered based on the Year_Enrolled without additing Year_Enrolled filter on the dashboard. But the rest of the counts such as "Fees Paid" and "Contract Signed" to be filtered based on commecement_year filter.
Solved! Go to Solution.
@mighty If you don't want Year_Enrolled = 2024, you can remove filter condition from the measure.
Below measure will ignore the filter applied on Table[commencement_year]
Enroled =
CALCULATE (
DISTINCTCOUNT ( Learner[id] ),
REMOVEFILTERS ( Table[commencement_year] ),
Learner[Date_Approved_Scholar_Application] <> BLANK ()
)
+ CALCULATE (
DISTINCTCOUNT ( Learner[id] ),
REMOVEFILTERS ( Table[commencement_year] ),
Learner[Date_Approved_Sibling_Application] <> BLANK ()
)
OR
Enroled =
CALCULATE (
DISTINCTCOUNT ( Learner[id] ),
ALL ( Table[commencement_year] ),
Learner[Date_Approved_Scholar_Application] <> BLANK ()
)
+ CALCULATE (
DISTINCTCOUNT ( Learner[id] ),
ALL ( Table[commencement_year] ),
Learner[Date_Approved_Sibling_Application] <> BLANK ()
)
Try this
Enroled =
CALCULATE (
DISTINCTCOUNT ( Learner[id] ),
Learner[Date_Approved_Scholar_Application] <> BLANK (),
REMOVEFILTERS ( Table[commencement_year] ),
FILTER ( Learner, Learner[Year_Enrolled] = 2024 )
)
+ CALCULATE (
DISTINCTCOUNT ( Learner[id] ),
Learner[Date_Approved_Sibling_Application] <> BLANK (),
REMOVEFILTERS ( Table[commencement_year] ),
FILTER ( Learner, Learner[Year_Enrolled] = 2024 )
)
Still it is filtering the commencement_year 😥
