Count occurrence with condition

Hi 

I have a table looks like this:

Capture2.PNG

What I want to achieve is to count the occurrence of the client no. where the Position is 10.

 

I want to use Card visualization in my report: 

1. have a total buying customer (the distinct count of client no) 20

2. 16 of them are buying for the first time ( the distinct count of client no =1 )

3. 4 of them are returning (the distinct count of client no >1)

 

The report should have three Cards:

Please help 😞

Hello @dgdgdg122db 

We need just a few measures to get what you are looking for.

A count of all the rows, this we will use for filtering later.

Line Count = COUNTROWS ( 'Table' )

A count of the distinct customers (the 20)

Buying Customers = DISTINCTCOUNT ( 'Table'[Client no] )

The first time buyers

First Time Buyers = 
CALCULATE ( 
    [Buying Customers], FILTER ( VALUES ( 'Table'[Client no] ) , [Line Count] = 1 )
)

And the returning customers

Returning Customers = 
CALCULATE ( 
    [Buying Customers], FILTER ( VALUES ( 'Table'[Client no] ) , [Line Count] > 1 )
)

I'm not sure what you mean about the filter on position 10 but the position filed can be added as a page level filter and that will limit all the measures above to only calculate against the lines in position 10 if that is what you are looking for.

I have attached my sample file for you to look at.
