    try this

     

    Emp count distinct = 
    VAR _disctinctCount = DISTINCTCOUNT('Sample Table'[employeeID])
    VAR _result = IF(SELECTEDVALUE('Sample Table'[Type]) = "P",_disctinctCount*0.33,_disctinctCount)
    RETURN _result

    Hello Arul  and the forum!

     

    When the 'Type' column is not being used on the layout. The measure is not doing the math. Therefore, I resolved the issue with the dax code below.

    Active FTEs (Cal_2) =
    VAR _P =
        CALCULATE (
            DISTINCTCOUNT ( EMP_TRAN_FACT[HR Employee ID] ),
            EMP_TRAN_FACT[HR Employee Event Type] = "ACTIVE"
                && EMP_TRAN_FACT[HR Employee Job Type] = "P"
        )
    VAR _F =
        CALCULATE (
            DISTINCTCOUNT ( EMP_TRAN_FACT[HR Employee ID] ),
            EMP_TRAN_FACT[HR Employee Event Type] = "ACTIVE"
                && EMP_TRAN_FACT[HR Employee Job Type] = "F"
        )
    RETURN
        CALCULATE (
            SUMX (
                VALUES ( EMP_TRAN_FACT[HR Employee Job Type] ),
                IF ( EMP_TRAN_FACT[HR Employee Job Type] = "P", _P * 0.33, _F )
            )
        )
