Count Distinct Column B where Column A Match
I need a little help with this one as i have not found an answer that works.
I have two columns.
Column A Column B
Group A Name A
Group A Name B
Group A Name C
Group B Name A
Group B Name D
Group B Name B
Group B Name C
I want to Group Column A and count distinct on Column B Essentially so that it looks like this without actually having to create a new table.
Column A Column B
Group A 3
Group B 4
So I want to be able to show this in a visual where below is true
Total Number of Column A Groups Where Column B is > 100
Hope That makes sense.
I would use calculate column, something like
Count Values = CALCULATE(COUNTA(Table1[Column B]), ALL(Table1[Column B]), Table1[Column A]= EARLIER(Table1[Column A]))
Maybe there is better way to calculate, but idea is to have column which you cna use in visual filter.
Hi jvanmeter,
Drag column A to the visual and then use this calculated field formula i.e. measure
=DISTINCTCOUNT(Data[ColumnB])
Now apply a criteria on the measure as > 100
