My dax is not working correctly

Hello everyone, I have a dax for counting the number of days for Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday Sunday at the month.

 

DayOfTeachCount =
VAR SelectedWeekStart = MIN ('Teacher Schedule'[Date])
VAR SelectedWeekEnd = MAX ('Teacher Schedule'[Date])
VAR Starttime = VALUE(SELECTEDVALUE('Teacher Schedule'[StartTime]))
VAR Endtime = VALUE(SELECTEDVALUE('Teacher Schedule'[EndTime]))
VAR Result =
        SUMX(
            VALUES ( 'Teacher Schedule'[Date]),
            SWITCH (
                WEEKDAY ( 'Teacher Schedule'[Date],2 ),
                1, IF ( 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] >= SelectedWeekStart && 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] <= SelectedWeekEnd, 1, 0 ),
                2, IF ( 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] >= SelectedWeekStart && 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] <= SelectedWeekEnd, 1, 0 ),
                3, IF ( 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] >= SelectedWeekStart && 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] <= SelectedWeekEnd, 1, 0 ),
                4, IF ( 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] >= SelectedWeekStart && 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] <= SelectedWeekEnd, 1, 0 ),
                5, IF ( 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] >= SelectedWeekStart && 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] <= SelectedWeekEnd, 1, 0 ),
                6, IF ( 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] >= SelectedWeekStart && 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] <= SelectedWeekEnd, 1, 0 ),
                7, IF ( 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] >= SelectedWeekStart && 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] <= SelectedWeekEnd, 1, 0 ),
                BLANK ()
            )
        )
  Return Result
But the visual is :

But the DayofTeachCount is not exactly because 3 of Fridays are not time for teaching

sakuragihana_1-1690189806962.png

 

 

The visual right must have be : DayofTeachRight = 10

 

 

I make a power BI file with table data in this link:https://drive.google.com/file/d/1KRmfetcp4tVrf2Xti2HMZRFnMJELpvTU/view?usp=drive_link 

Please everyone help me add a condition into dax DayOfTeachCount : if StartTime > 0 and EndTime > 0 to count the number of days of Monday, Tuesday, ..., if StartTime = 0 and EndTime = 0 then the day is not counted.

Thank a lot

Hi @sakuragihana 

 

You can create a kind of multiplier:

Multiplier = 

SUMX('Teacher Schedule', IF('Teacher Schedule'[StartTime]="0",0,1))

 

And then, modify your measure:

DayOfTeachCount = 
VAR SelectedWeekStart = MIN ('Teacher Schedule'[Date])
VAR SelectedWeekEnd = MAX ('Teacher Schedule'[Date])
VAR Starttime = VALUE(SELECTEDVALUE('Teacher Schedule'[StartTime]))
VAR Endtime = VALUE(SELECTEDVALUE('Teacher Schedule'[EndTime]))
VAR Result = 
        SUMX(
            VALUES ( 'Teacher Schedule'[Date]),
            SWITCH (
                WEEKDAY ( 'Teacher Schedule'[Date],2),
                1, IF ( 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] >= SelectedWeekStart && 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] <= SelectedWeekEnd, 1*[Multiplier], 0 ),
                2, IF ( 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] >= SelectedWeekStart && 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] <= SelectedWeekEnd, 1*[Multiplier], 0 ),
                3, IF ( 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] >= SelectedWeekStart && 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] <= SelectedWeekEnd, 1*[Multiplier], 0 ),
                4, IF ( 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] >= SelectedWeekStart && 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] <= SelectedWeekEnd, 1*[Multiplier], 0 ),
                5, IF ( 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] >= SelectedWeekStart && 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] <= SelectedWeekEnd, 1*[Multiplier], 0 ),
                6, IF ( 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] >= SelectedWeekStart && 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] <= SelectedWeekEnd, 1*[Multiplier], 0 ),
                7, IF ( 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] >= SelectedWeekStart && 'Teacher Schedule'[Date] <= SelectedWeekEnd, 1*[Multiplier], 0 ),
                BLANK ()
            )
        )
  Return Result 

Hi @mlsx4 ,

I am sorry but the dax is not correctly. The result is : 21 ( the right result is 10)

But why 10? Because of Saturdays and Sundays? 

Hi @mlsx4 ,

 You can see data in power BI file , the Friday that teacher have no schedule .

Hi @sakuragihana 

 

But I don't understand your point. It is not taking into account the fridays:

Hi @mlsx4 ,

sakuragihana_0-1690278638063.pngsakuragihana_1-1690278638715.png

 Total DayofTeach = 10 ( because Friday is not teach) , and another is count distinct because at one day have many time for teaching .
