Hello guys
There's a table like :
| PC_ID | AC NO. | PARTY | SEAT |
| RJ-8 | 59 | BJP | 8 |
| RJ-8 | 60 | INC | 8 |
| RJ-8 | 61 | INC | 8 |
| RJ-8 | 62 | BJP | 8 |
| RJ-8 | 65 | INC | 8 |
| RJ-8 | 66 | BJP | 8 |
| RJ-8 | 67 | INC | 8 |
| RJ-8 | 68 | INC | 8 |
MY REQUIRED TABLE IS LIKE:
| PC_ID | AC NO. | PARTY | SEAT | STATUS |
| RJ-8 | 59 | BJP | 8 | 3/8 |
| RJ-8 | 60 | INC | 8 | 5/8 |
| RJ-8 | 61 | INC | 8 | 5/8 |
| RJ-8 | 62 | BJP | 8 | 3/8 |
| RJ-8 | 65 | INC | 8 | 5/8 |
| RJ-8 | 66 | BJP | 8 | 3/8 |
| RJ-8 | 67 | INC | 8 | 5/8 |
| RJ-8 | 68 | INC | 8 | 5/8 |
BASICALLY IT COUNTS THE PARTY COLUMN VALUES WITH TOTAL SEATS AND RETURN A RESULT COLUMN.
Thanks & Regards ...
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @BIswajit_Das,
If you decide to add this column via DAX, here is an option:
And in plain text:
STATUS =
VAR currentParty = [PARTY]
RETURN COUNTROWS ( FILTER ( 'Table', [PARTY] = currentParty ) ) & "/" & [SEAT]

Hi @BIswajit_Das ,
Your solution is great, @barritown . It worked like a charm! Here I have another idea in mind, and I would like to share it for reference.
Measure performs better compared to computed columns because it doesn't take up memory space.
So I would recommend that you try not to use calculated columns for functions that can be implemented using measure, especially since the performance difference will be more noticeable when working with large data.
Please create a measure:
STATUS =
VAR TotalSeats =
MAX ( 'Table'[SEAT] )
VAR PartyCount =
CALCULATE ( COUNTROWS ( 'Table' ), ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[PARTY] ) )
RETURN
CONCATENATE ( CONCATENATE ( PartyCount, "/" ), TotalSeats )
The final page effect is as follows:
