Count distinct value

Hello!

I have a database where for each accounts there is an employee. There is the case where one or more employee have the same accounts, so the accounts name is duplicated in database. Each Accounts have a market share : A,B,C and I need to count how many acccounts with C there are in my Database related to total of the accounts. The problem is that the formula that I'm using counts the same account several time, for each employee. How can I count just one time the accounts?

In the following the formula that I'm using: 

% Tier C = CALCULATE ( COUNT( Account [Code]) , Filter('Account', 'Account'[TIER] = "C")) / CALCULATE ( COUNT( Account [Code]) , Filter('Account', 'Account'[TIER] = "A" || 'Account [Code]) , Filter('Account', 'Account'[TIER] = "B"|| 'Account [Code]) , Filter('Account', 'Account'[TIER] = "C"))

 

Many thanks!

If account code is duplicate, please use DISTINCTCOUNT

Count Tier C = CALCULATE ( DISTINCTCOUNT( Account [Code]) , Filter('Account', 'Account'[TIER] = "C"))
Total Count = DISTINCTCOUNT( Account [Code])
% Tier C  = Count Tier C/Total Count


Let me know, it works or not
