Hi, I've searched for something to help with me this but haven't quite found the answer so hopefully I can get some guidance here.
Below is a very simple mockup of my situation.
There is one instance where the Item ID has the same Reason For Return on both occasions, #1.
Item ID Reason For Return
1 Faulty
2 Bought in Error
3 Bought in Error
4 Bought in Error
5 Replacement
6 Bought in Error
7 Bought in Error
8 Bought in Error
9 Faulty
1 Faulty
2 Replacement
3 Faulty
I am looking for a measure that will give me a count the number of instances like this which will also be used as a filter.
I am currently using a calculated column to concatente and then a measure to count the instances where there is more than one occurance of that concatenation. So, "1Faulty" would return 2 whereas everything else would return a 1.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Yes this is possible. But I need more details:
Thank you and have a great day!
Hi @24601
can you please clarify further what do you exactly mean by "I am looking for a measure that will give me a count the number of instances like this which will also be used as a filter." Do you mean to use the measure as slicer for example? Can you please provide sample of the expected results and the detais of your report visual.
Hi @tamerj1
Sorry if I was not clear with my query.
I am looking to identify when two data in two columns match but in a measure rather than a calculated column and to use it for two purposes.
1) To use in a card to give a view of the total of instances
2) To be used in a table as a filter to identify orders that have duplicate Reasons for Return.
Unfortunately, I cannot provide a visual of what I would like this to look like that moment.
I hope I've explained myself better this time.
