Hi,

 

Looks like that worked - could you please explain your solution a little so I know exactly what you did?

 

Is this measure the only thing you changed?

 

Zero Sales Store = COUNTROWS(FILTER(SUMMARIZE(VALUES(DateKey[Date]),[Date],"ABCD",SUM(sold[Quantity Sold])),[ABCD]=0))
 
Thanks

Hi,

 

Yes. That is all i changed.  The VALUES(DateKey[Date]) portion creates a unique list of all dates from the DateKey Table.  Against every date, we then plot the sale and give a title to this column as ABCD.  We thereafter filter the ABCD column on all values where the value is 0.  Finally we count the days in the filtered Table.
