Calculated Column from Measure

I am using this Dax as a measure - 

S =
CALCULATE(
    COUNT('Colleague Events'[SEARCH_ID]),
    FILTER(
        'Colleague Events',
        'Colleague Events'[CAUSE2] IN {"didyoumeanAutomatic", "didyoumeanClick", "searchboxSubmit", "searchboxAsYouType", "omniboxSearch", "omniboxAnalytics", "omniboxFromLink", "omniboxField", "searchFromLink"}
    )
)

But when I use the same dax for the calculated column it is not giving the correct output. Please download the Excel files 

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1dGREcWSPPDGj8MBnQNAcqeKV_s1swcG5/view?usp=drivesdk - This one shows incorrect count when using the dax in calculated Column

The "Colleague Name" is from another column. However, I was able to resolve the issue by separating the filter. 


IsDesiredCause =
    'Colleague Events'[CAUSE2] IN {"didyoumeanAutomatic", "didyoumeanClick", "searchboxSubmit",
                                   "searchboxAsYouType", "omniboxSearch", "omniboxAnalytics",
                                   "omniboxFromLink", "omniboxField", "searchFromLink"}
Colleague Searches =
CALCULATE (
        COUNT('Colleague Events'[SEARCH_ID]), ALLEXCEPT('Colleague Events', 'Colleague Events'[CAUSE2]), 'Colleague Events'[IsDesiredCause] = TRUE()
)
This gave the correct output

@saud968,

 

Try this calculated column. The ALL calculate modifier is necessary to clear the filter context, and then apply the desired filter.

 

S =
CALCULATE (
    COUNT ( 'Colleague Events'[SEARCH_ID] ),
    ALL ( 'Colleague Events' ),
    'Colleague Events'[CAUSE2]
        IN {
            "didyoumeanAutomatic",
            "didyoumeanClick",
            "searchboxSubmit",
            "searchboxAsYouType",
            "omniboxSearch",
            "omniboxAnalytics",
            "omniboxFromLink",
            "omniboxField",
            "searchFromLink"
        }
)

        'Colleague Events'[Colleague Name]
            = EARLIER ( 'Colleague Events'[Colleague Name] )
            && 'Colleague Events'[CAUSE2]
            IN {
                "didyoumeanAutomatic",
                "didyoumeanClick",
                "searchboxSubmit",
                "searchboxAsYouType",
                "omniboxSearch",
                "omniboxAnalytics",
                "omniboxFromLink",
                "omniboxField",
                "searchFromLink"
            }
    )
)

If the following information cannot meet your requirement, can you provide some sample output you want?
