    Hi DusterD 

    Here try this.

     

    Past 6 months active = 
CALCULATE(
    INT( DISTINCTCOUNT( Table1[CASE_ID] ) >= 3 ),
    DATESINPERIOD( Table1[DATE_SUBMITED].[Date], MAX( Table1[DATE_SUBMITED].[Date] ), -6, MONTH )
)
    • DISTINCTCOUNT will count distinct Case ID, if no duplicates you can replace it with COUNTROWS( Table1 )
    • >= 3 will convert the count to true \ false 
    •  INT() will convert it to 1/0, so 1 is for active customer with 3 and over 

     

    Best Regards,

    Hi DusterD 

    The below will count the active users

    Past 6 months active = 
VAR _users = 
CALCULATETABLE( 
    GROUPBY( 
        Table1, 
        Table1[USER_ID],
        "CaseCount", COUNTX( CURRENTGROUP(), Table1[CASE_ID] )
    ),
    DATESINPERIOD( Table1[DATE_SUBMITED].[Date], MAX( Table1[DATE_SUBMITED].[Date] ), -6, MONTH )
) 
RETURN COUNTROWS( FILTER( _users, [CaseCount] > 2 ) )

Hi Mariusz 

 

Digging deeper, I created measure to get a distinctcount user IDs and when I select the 6 months in the slicer the number is exactly what I'm looking for. My end goal here is to be able to have a count of active users per month that I can graph. Thanks so much for your help!

 

Correct number with 6 months selectedToo low when latest month selectedToo high when all months selected
