How to simplify DAX measure

Hello, I am new to powerbi and would like to know how I can simply the following piece of code in my measure. This is being used in many different places with slight different variable string such as "incident"

 

 

 

var Type = "Incident"

var OpenIncidents = countrows(filter(all(Master), Master[Ticket_Type] = Type ))

return If(ISBLANK(OpenIncidents),0,OpenIncidents)

 

 

 

The filter line is the same in all measure except for the value "Incident"

hi @shorif2000 

when you say "This is being used in many different places with slight different variable string such as "incident"", how are the measures being used? Individually or collectively?

I use it in report page as a cell value. i have duplicated reports where the

 

Type 

 

value changes. I was wondering how i can make this dynamic Like:

 

 

filterRows(type=incident){

return (int) run query(type)
}



measure 1 = filterRows(inc)

measure 2 = filterRows(chg)

measure 3 = filterRows(req)

 

can you make a screenshot indicating the rows and/or columns of the mentioned cell?
