Count Distinct but only SUM different numbers

[android1]

Hi,

I want to sum the number of distinct times a number in Visit Num column occurs.  In pic below for e.g 250884 occurs twice. I only want to count this once & display a total sum. Using distinct count which is what the second column is sums everything.

Are you using Table visual? If so, change it to Matrix visual.

Put [Visit Num] into Row field. Add measure DISTINCTCOUNT([Visit Num]) as value field.

@android1,

Can you try create this measure:

Count:= CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(Table))

Then place them intable with the Visit Number:

Let me know if this helps. Thanks.

@android1,

Did you add a calculated column or a measure?

If you create a calculated column, you summarize the count as sum.

If it is a measure, you will set "Don't summarize" for the Visit Number.

@Anonymous,

Using a Measure as I'm in Direct Query.

Think I have it right but not doing what I need. See how Count is summing VisitNum twice, e.g 240035 is a count of 2 as it appears in Visit Num twice. Only need to sum it once.
