Hello Everyone,
I need your help.
I have a table with Students being out for certain days in a week as shown below:
I would like to create a DAX expression to get similar result.
If you have any idea pls share, thank you in advance.

Hi @Anonymous ,
Like this?
You just need to create a cloumn:
Rate = var _count=CALCULATE(COUNTROWS('Table'),FILTER('Table','Table'[Student]=EARLIER('Table'[Student])))
return IF(_count=5,"High",IF(_count>1,"Medium",IF(_count=1,"Low")))
And then through conditonal formatting to get the color you want.
Refer my pbix file for better understanding.

@Anonymous , Do you have any date?
else try like
new column =
var _1 = countx(filter(Table, [Day] =earlier([Day]) && [Student] = earlier([Student]) ), [Student])
var _2 = countx(filter(Table, [Day] =earlier([Day]) && [Student] = earlier([Student]) && [Status] ="Out"), [Student])
Var _3 = distinctcount(Table[Day])
return
Switch(True() ,
_2 =_3, "High",
_2 =1, "Low",
"Medium"
)
Hey @amitchandak,
Thanks for the solution, it very close to what I was looking for.
I do have date column, where to use it if I want to see year to date (YTD) data?
