@akfir ,

first you need to create month name column in your table like below using below code

Month = FORMAT('Messages Delivered'[Date],"MMM-YY")

then create a measure using below logic then use it in your visual you will get your desired result,

Count of meassage = 
CALCULATE(COUNT('Messages Delivered'[Customer ID]),'Messages Delivered'[Delivered?]="TRUE")

Hi akfir

 

I succeed but I think there is an easy way to do it.

the table name with datas on this page have this name here : 'BAR CHART CALL (2)'

 

 

First I create a new table :

Nbre Message = var _step1=
ADDCOLUMNS(
SUMMARIZE('BAR CHART CALL (2)','BAR CHART CALL (2)'[Customer ID]),
"@NbMess",calculate(COUNT('BAR CHART CALL (2)'[Message ID]),'BAR CHART CALL (2)'[Delivered]="OK",KEEPFILTERS('BAR CHART CALL (2)')))
return
_step1
 
After a second table with generate
Serie message = GENERATESERIES(1,10,1)
 
and finally add a column to this table ==>
Cust = var nbmess='Serie message'[Value]
var result=calculate(count('Nbre Message'[Customer ID]),'Nbre Message'[@NbMess]=nbmess)
return
result
 
At the end I used the last table ot make the graph.
