Hello
I am trying to create a calculated column in a table that displays total number of distinct unique values per month. For instance, in the below table, there are 3 unique values - A1, B2 and B3 in the period of Jan 2017. So I need a count of 3 to be displayed in my count column.
| Date | Unique value | Count required |
| 31/01/2017 | A1 | 3 |
| 31/01/2017 | B2 | 3 |
| 31/01/2017 | A1 | 3 |
| 31/01/2017 | B3 | 3 |
| 31/01/2017 | A1 | 3 |
| 28/02/2017 | A1 | 2 |
| 28/02/2017 | A1 | 2 |
| 28/02/2017 | B2 | 2 |
| 28/02/2017 | B2 | 2 |
| 31/03/2017 | A1 | 4 |
| 31/03/2017 | B2 | 4 |
| 31/03/2017 | B3 | 4 |
| 31/03/2017 | C3 | 4 |
Is it possible to calculate the 'Count required' column through DAX?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi @Anonymous ,
Based on my test, you could refer to below steps:
Create a Month column:
Month = MONTH('Table2'[Date])
Create below measure:
Measure = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(Table2[Unique value]),FILTER(ALL('Table2'),'Table2'[Month]=MAX('Table2'[Month])))
Result:
You could also download the pbix file to have a view.
