Hi,
I've searched everywhere for this and seem unable to find an answer!
I'm wanting a measure to count the columns, in a specified range of columns, whereby the value is greater than 0. I've included an example of how this would look - The Count column is the result of the measure and, for example, column A isn't being counted as it's not relevant.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Hi @Liam01 ,
Try something like this.
Columns Populated = VAR B_C = IF(SUM(Test[B])>=1,1,0)
VAR C_C = IF(SUM(Test[C])>=1,1,0)
VAR D_C = IF(SUM(Test[D])>=1,1,0)
VAR E_C = IF(SUM(Test[E])>=1,1,0)
RETURN B_C+C_C+D_C+E_C

Hi,
I'm returning to this as I need this to do something slightly different and hopefully you may be able to help.
As it works at the minute, it counts the items but if a job appears twice with a B in each occurrence, it will still only return 1.
I guess i'm wanting this measure to do a count rather than a distinct count, as in the photo below - Top table shows data, bottom shows when it's combined by job number.
So if a job appears twice and each occurrence has an A, the bottom table would show 2. Hopefully that makes sense.
Thanks
