Here, I just wanted to calculate how many times a subject is coming for a particular name and wanted the same in count column.
Excel Formula is = COUNTIFS($B$3:$B$16,B3,$C$3:$C$16,C3)
Created a measure but it is not working..
Solved! Go to Solution.
@Anonymous - So you could create a column or measure like:
Measure =
VAR __Name = MAX([Name])
VAR __Class = MAX([Class])
RETURN
COUNTROWS(FILTER(ALL('Table'),[Name]=__Name && [Class]=__Class))
Column =
VAR __Name = [Name]
VAR __Class = [Class]
RETURN
COUNTROWS(FILTER('Table',[Name]=__Name && [Class]=__Class))
