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.

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

This kind of a pattern should work
Measure = countrows(filter(values(product[product]),[profit amt]<0)
Hope this helps.
