Hi There,

Hi satish_pb ,
We can use the FIND() function to get the list of quantity of incidents where the text contains VFF, please refer to the following DAX query:
Measure = SUMX ( 'Table', IF ( FIND ( "VFF", 'Table'[Categorized_Disposition], 1, BLANK () ) = BLANK (), 0, 'Table'[QTY] ) )The result will like below:
