Please help to build DAX to count a category with an exception for the certain period.

I have different Order Types per Period:

1. Entry

2. Revision

3. CleanUp

4. Quote Entry

5. Quote Revision

 

What I need is to count how many Entry and Revision per period. I have rows 1 to 12 for the period.

 

I was only able to count all but I'm struggling on how to apply EXCEPT type 3 to 5. Please help me build the complete DAX:

 

SUMX(VALUES('CRM Data (2)'[PD Completed]),CALCULATE(COUNTROWS('CRM Data (2)')))
 
Thanks!

Try this: 

SUMX(

    VALUES('CRM Data (2)'[PD Completed]),

    CALCULATE(

        COUNTROWS('CRM Data (2)')

    ),

    'CRM Data (2)'[Order Types] IN {"Entry", "Revision"}

)

Thank you! That's what I'm looking for. I thought I need to put an "Except" before this  'CRM Data (2)'[Order Types] IN {"Entry", "Revision"}, that's where my previous formula isn't working. So it can be as simple as that. Awesome!

the except is actually a NOT logic, the code below shall also work, 

 

SUMX(

    VALUES('CRM Data (2)'[PD Completed]),

    CALCULATE(

        COUNTROWS('CRM Data (2)')

    ),

    NOT 'CRM Data (2)'[Order Types] IN {"CleanUp", "Quote Entry", "Quote Revision"}

)

 

In cases when the list you want to exclude is the longer half, you can try this way.
