I have a table with MonthNum and patients. I want to count patient per month using month number.
Thank you
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Tadadada
To count patients per month based on the MONTHNUM column, use this DAX formula:
Patient Count = COUNTROWS(FILTER(TableName, TableName[MonthNum] = SELECTEDVALUE(TableName[MonthNum])))
Replace TABLENAME with your actual table name.
This formula counts rows where the MONTHNUM matches the current month context in your visual, giving you a monthly patient count.

Poojara,
This solution is just what I needed. Thank you
Helo @Tadadada ,
You can create a measure for the same.
PatientsPerMonth =
CALCULATE(
COUNT('YourTable'[patients]),
ALLEXCEPT('YourTable', 'YourTable'[MonthNum])
)
I hope this helps.
Mark this as solution if this helps or give a thumbs up.
Cheers.
divyed,

hi @Tadadada ,
just plot a visual with monthnumber column and a measure like:
count = DISTINCTCOUNT(tablename[patient])
or?
