Calculated Formula to count

Hello everybody, 

Today i have the following report on excel:

On my Power BI already created different Tables: one with a calendar table, other with the 5 Countries, other with the 8 Areas. And the last one called MovementsReport with all the historical info of the movements of the comany since 2015 (all relationships are already created).

 

In my MovementsReport Table I have:

a column called Status, with values "OK", "NO OK", null.

a column called Area with the name of each area were the movement has been done.

a column called Country with the respective Country were the movement has been done.

a column with the date in which the movement has been donde.

 

I want it to be more dynamic than the actual Excel Report, so I'm using slicers for country, area, year and month. Instead of creating one table visualization i want to use cards as visualization, one for each value, as following... so I will be capable of giving the % a conditional formatting. So I should create two "tables" one to show the monthly info of movements using slicers. And other that should be static (no interactions) showing the accumulated for the current year.

 

 

 

My question is, which formula shoud I use for the measures?

What I need to show is:

a value Mov Adherence = count of OK Status

a value for Total Mov = count of OK/NO OK status    

    

For the accumulated table, I would like them to be a calculate formula, filtering the area, the status, and the date.

For Example Count OK, if Area SUPPLY, for Argentina, Month JANUARY 2017 + FEB 2017 + MARCH 2017 +...

 

Thanks & regards!

    Hi v-ljerr-msft!

    Sorry to bother you again. I created a secondary relationship (dotted line) between my DimArea Table and my Area column of MovementsReport. I need to use the following formula

     

    COUNT of sumar cf = CALCULATE(
    COUNTROWS('MovementsReport') ,
    FILTER(
    'MovementsReport',
    NOT ISBLANK('MovementsReport'[Sumar CF a])
    )
    )

     

    and add a USERELATIONSHIP(DimAreas[Área],MovementsReport[Area])

     

    to add this value to Area Column and not Previous Area (Active relationship).

     

    I don't know why, when i create this measure i'm getting an error, too many arguments for filter. Could you please help me to get the right formula.

     

    Regards!

    Hi franorio,

    a value Mov Adherence = count of OK Status

    a value for Total Mov = count of OK/NO OK status



    According to your descriptions above, you should be able to use the formulas below to create two measures, then show them on Card visuals or show them on Table/Matrix visuals with other columns.:smileyhappy:

    Mov Adherence =
    CALCULATE (
        COUNTROWS ( 'MovementsReport' ),
        FILTER ( 'MovementsReport', 'MovementsReport'[Status] = "OK" )
    )
    
    Total Mov =
    CALCULATE (
        COUNTROWS ( 'MovementsReport' ),
        FILTER (
            'MovementsReport',
            'MovementsReport'[Status] = "OK"
                || 'MovementsReport'[Status] = "NO OK"
        )
    )

      Hi v-ljerr-msft

      Thanks for your reply, just another question..

      Whats this report does is to measure the movements that are OK by policy inside the company, 

      Don't ask why, but because of our company policy, if the movement is inside the area it counts as 1, if the movement is from an Area as People to another Area for example Finance it should count as a movement adherence for each Area, so it count as 1 for each area. 

       

      What I did is to add new column, if Previous Area (Área Anterior) does not match New Area it returns me the column Sumar CF, that would be the Area where i should also add a movement.

       

       

      So for example, with the formula you gave me, i also would need to add the values of this Sumar CF column to each area.

      For this pic for example 

       

      Count if  OK by Área Anterior (status OK not shown on the image):

       

      Supply  13  +  1 (the one in Sumar CF column)

      People  5

      Sales  2

      Finance  2

      Marketing 1

      Solutions 2  +  1 (the one in Sumar CF column)

      L&CA  0  +  1 (the one in Sumar CF column)

       

      Is there a way to do this?

       

      Thanks & Regards!

        Just to clarify, 

         

        this is how my information looks:

         

        If Colun Área Anterior and column Area doesn't match = false returns Area on Column Sumar CF.

         

         

        so the count of "OK" Status para Smar CF should be added to the count of "OK" for Status

         

        Is there a way to add together two different calculate countrows?

         

          

         

        Regards!
