How to create a filter with count

I would like to create a short table showing how much customers have bought how much product,s and I'm struggling getting the COUNT or COUNTROWS working as an expression within CALCULATE/CALCULATETABLE.

Here my table :

clo_64_0-1655149478965.png

And would like to get:
Nbr of Products     Nbr of Customers
1                             3
2                             2

How do I do that with DAX?
Thanks

Hi @clo_64,

 

I think I got to a solution:

Here the DAX:

New Table = 
VAR _helpTable =
SUMMARIZE (
    TableCustomerProduct,
    TableCustomerProduct[Customer],
    "Nbr of Products", DISTINCTCOUNT ( TableCustomerProduct[Product] )
)
RETURN
SUMMARIZE (
    _helpTable,
    [Nbr of Products],
    "Nbr of Customers",
    CALCULATE (
        DISTINCTCOUNT ( 'TableCustomerProduct'[Customer] ),
        FILTER (
            VALUES ( 'TableCustomerProduct'[Customer] ),
            CALCULATE ( DISTINCTCOUNT ( TableCustomerProduct[Product] ) ) = [Nbr of Products]
        )
    )
)

 

The _helpTable does a grouping on customer with a distinct count on product. The return statement uses the Number of Products from the _helptable combined  with a "having clause" in order to retrieve the number of customers per number of products

 

Let me know if this helps 🙂

Hi,

 

Coulld you explain why you have 2 2 on the second line of your output?  Shouldn't it be 2 1, as only the customer Gamma has bought 2 products?

 

Best regards.

Because Ypsilon has also bought 2 distint products.
