COUNT

Hi,

I have a table of distinct Account records, and I want a measure that counts how many Activities each Account have in a table of Activities. If an Account doesn't have any Activities, show Blank, otherwise show the number of Activities. I will basically count how many times the AccountId appears in the Activity table.

 

Account A3
Account B2
Account C 
Account D5
Account E 

 

Thanks

Hi @Trosa_220568 ,

There are two ways, please choose:

First way: select "Show items with no data"

Second way: adjust your DAX formula

NO.Activities =
IF (
    HASONEVALUE ( Accounts[ID] ),
    IF (
        SELECTEDVALUE ( Accounts[ID] ) IN VALUES ( Activities[Account ID] ),
        COUNTX ( Activities, Activities[Account ID] ),
        ""
    ),
    COUNTX ( Activities, Activities[Account ID] )
)

@Trosa_220568 need a little bit more info about your model 🙂 Are the tables related? In what way? Where do you want to present this result? as a new column? In a visual?
Can you share a sample file and answer the above questions and I could send back the code

Hi,

Tables related from Accounts to Activities

Table data:

Accounts:

Activities:

I want a count for each account on the left hand side of how many times the Account ID appears in the Activities table. I currently have this measure: 

No. Activities = COUNTX(Acitivities,Acitivities[Account ID])

That filters down the table to only show Accounts with an Activity. I need a measure that will show ALL the Accounts regardless if they have an Activity or not. Show blank if there are no activities.

Does this make more sense?

 

@Trosa_220568 hey, will be back to desk in few minutes. Do you want to do a quick zoom?
