Count of records with two types of values

Hi there,

 

I got a data which contains the registration number and authorisation type of the registration number. I want to calculate the no of registration number that are holding two types of authorisation types i.e. LAT and PROV or LAT and Tōmua/Prov. I created a measure as follow:

 

2 types =
SUMX(Authorisation,
Var _auth = CALCULATE(MAX(Authorisation[Authorisation_Type__c]))
RETURN
IF(Authorisation[Authorisation_Type__c] = "LAT" && (Authorisation[Authorisation_Type__c] = "PROV" || Authorisation[Authorisation_Type__c] = "Tōmua/Prov"),1,0))
 
However, the above measure returns 0 which is not the case. Could anyone help me in fixing the issue?
 
Data here

I'm not sure I'm interpreting your question correctly, but maybe this will be closer to what you're after:

Two types = 
SUMX (
    VALUES ( Authorisation[Individual__r.Registration_Number__c] ),
    IF (
        CALCULATE (
            DISTINCTCOUNT ( Authorisation[Authorisation_Type__c] ),
            Authorisation[Authorisation_Type__c] IN { "LAT", "PROV", "Tōmua/Prov" }
        ) = 2,
        1,
        0
    )
)

Hi,

Since you have not described what you want, i am just making a guess of desired result.  Try this measure

2 types try = SUMX(VALUES(Sheet1[Registration_Number__c]),
                   
                    VAR _auth = CALCULATE(MAX(Sheet1[Authorisation_Type__c]))
                  
                    RETURN IF(_auth="LAT" || (_auth = "PROV" || _auth = "Tōmua/Prov") ,1,0))

The result i get is 26,566

This is returning 0 because the single-value-variable _auth cannot logically equal "LAT" and any other value at the same time.

 

Also, looking at your data, each Registration_Number__c occurs only in a single row, so I don't see how it can be associated with more than one authorization type.

@AlexisOlson , Sorry I updated the data sample and also updated the measure but still getting the same result i.e. 0

I'm not sure I'm interpreting your question correctly, but maybe this will be closer to what you're after:

Two types = 
SUMX (
    VALUES ( Authorisation[Individual__r.Registration_Number__c] ),
    IF (
        CALCULATE (
            DISTINCTCOUNT ( Authorisation[Authorisation_Type__c] ),
            Authorisation[Authorisation_Type__c] IN { "LAT", "PROV", "Tōmua/Prov" }
        ) = 2,
        1,
        0
    )
)
