COUNTA Result While displaying original data.

We would like to display the total count in a table grid of the COUNTA (Counts the number of records that are not empty) result.  But maintain the original text.

 

Similar to the following screenshot.

Power BI displays the count at the bottom but switches the detail values to the individual count.  In this case 1.

Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated !!!

Hi Chris,  thank you for your suggestion, but we need the count value at the bottom of the DONE column.  Identical to how Excel displays it.  Any suggestions ?
