I have a problem. i have this column columns in my data set and i want to be able to count each object class that appears more than once within a month..I also have a different calender table and made a relationship with this "Obj_reported".. I have tried this and sis not work
"CountObjectsOverOncePerMonth =
VAR Event_Count =
ADDCOLUMNS (
SUMMARIZE ( Data, Data[Obj_Classs], YEAR(Data[Obj_Reported]), MONTH(Data[Obj_Reported])),
"Count", CALCULATE ( COUNTROWS ( Data), ALLEXCEPT ( Data, Data[Obj_Classs], YEAR(Data[Obj_Reported]), MONTH(Data[Obj_Reported])) )
)
VAR Objects_Beyond_1 = FILTER ( Event_Count, [Count] > 1 )
RETURN
COUNTROWS ( Objects_Beyond_1 )
"
Obj_Classs | Obj_Reported |
A | 20/02/2021 |
A | 21/02/2021 |
B | 20/04/2021 |
C | 27/06/2021 |
G | 22/08/2021 |
B | 27/07/2021 |

Hi,
I am not sure how your semantic model looks like, but I tried to create a sample pbix file like below.
Please check the below picture and the attached pbix file.
More than once within the same month: =
VAR _t =
SUMMARIZE (
Data,
Obj_Classs[Obj_Classs],
'Calendar'[Year-Month sort],
'Calendar'[Date]
)
VAR _conditiontable =
FILTER (
ADDCOLUMNS (
_t,
"@appearancecount",
COUNTROWS (
FILTER (
_t,
Obj_Classs[Obj_Classs] = EARLIER ( Obj_Classs[Obj_Classs] )
&& 'Calendar'[Year-Month sort] = EARLIER ( 'Calendar'[Year-Month sort] )
)
)
),
[@appearancecount] > 1
)
RETURN
COUNTROWS ( SUMMARIZE ( _conditiontable, Obj_Classs[Obj_Classs] ) )

Hi @Dyke211
Thanks for the reply from @Jihwan_Kim , please allow me to provide another insight:
Create a measure:
MEASURE =
VAR _Event_Count =
SUMMARIZE (
ADDCOLUMNS (
'Data',
"_Year_Month", FORMAT ( 'Data'[Obj_Reported], "YYYY-MM" ),
"_Count",
CALCULATE (
COUNTROWS ( 'Data' ),
FILTER (
ALL ( Data ),
'Data'[Obj_Classs] = EARLIER ( Data[Obj_Classs] )
&& YEAR ( 'Data'[Obj_Reported] ) = YEAR ( EARLIER ( 'Data'[Obj_Reported] ) )
&& MONTH ( 'Data'[Obj_Reported] ) = MONTH ( EARLIER ( Data[Obj_Reported] ) )
)
)
),
[Obj_Classs],
[_Year_Month],
[_Count]
)
RETURN
COUNTROWS ( FILTER ( _Event_Count, [_Count] > 1 ) )
The result:
Or you can create a table:
Table =
FILTER (
SUMMARIZE (
ADDCOLUMNS (
'Data',
"_Year_Month", FORMAT ( 'Data'[Obj_Reported], "YYYY-MM" ),
"_Count",
CALCULATE (
COUNTROWS ( 'Data' ),
FILTER (
ALL ( Data ),
'Data'[Obj_Classs] = EARLIER ( Data[Obj_Classs] )
&& YEAR ( 'Data'[Obj_Reported] ) = YEAR ( EARLIER ( 'Data'[Obj_Reported] ) )
&& MONTH ( 'Data'[Obj_Reported] ) = MONTH ( EARLIER ( Data[Obj_Reported] ) )
)
)
),
[Obj_Classs],
[_Year_Month],
[_Count]
),
[_Count] > 1
)
The result is as follow:
