Count Measures Less than 0

Hey all,

 

pretty new to all this. 

Profit Amt =
Var _profit = [Rev]-[Exp]
RETURN
IF([Rev]<[Exp],_profit,0)

 

ihave the measure above defined which works. Using that I created a table visual showing the loss amount in each year (0 if profit).  

But now I would like to count how many times that it is less than 0. I don't care about the amount. Just want to know how many times. Seems like perhaps a simple solution but I'm just not familiar with count of measures.

Hi,

This kind of a pattern should work

Measure = countrows(filter(values(product[product]),[profit amt]<0)

Hope this helps.

You cannot measure a measure.  Implement your business logic in a new measure, using aggregation functions.
