Count multiple items

I have a table that has a status column and it lists the following three options:

 

In Progress

Complete

Late

 

I want to count only the number of items listed as In Progress and Late. 

 

I know how to do it for one, but don't know how to calculate the number of items for more than one status.

Hi,

I am not sure how your datamodel looks like, but I tried to create a sample pbix file like below.

Please check the below picture and the attached pbix file.

I hope the below sample can provide some ideas on how to create a solution for your datamodel.

Progress or late count measure: =
COUNTROWS ( FILTER ( Project, Project[Status] IN { "In Progress", "Late" } ) )

Hi @Anonymous !
You can do the following:

CALCULATE(
	COUNT( ItemsColumn ),
	StatusColumn IN {"In Progress", "Late"}
)

Let me know if that helps!
