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.. 

 

#Total count check =
CALCULATE (
COUNTROWS ( BU_SUBBU_Mapping),
FILTER (
Table1,
Table1[Name] = Table1[Name] ]
&& Table1[Subject] = Table1[Subject]
)
)
 
Please help..
 
Regards
Uphar

@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))
