    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    According to your statement, I think you want to count based on the filters on two columns in same table.

    I think filter on 'Employment status' should be "inactive" and filter on 'Employment staus on leaving' should be "unemployed". I suggest you to show your result by a card visual with visual level filter field.

    My Smaple:

    Result is as below.

    For reference: Add a filter to a report in Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

     

    Best Regards,
