Hi,
I have a dataset similar to the below.
| Job ID | Work Type | Cost |
| 1 | Day Work | £10 |
| 1 | Unit Rate | £100 |
| 2 | Day Work | £70 |
| 2 | Unit Rate | £60 |
| 3 | Day Work | £200 |
| 4 | Day Work | £400 |
| 5 | Unit Rate | £100 |
Can a DAX measure be created to do the following
1) Count Job ID's that have unit rate and day work associated with them? For example, in the above dataset, Job ID 1 & 2 both have Unit Rate and Day Work therefore the measure would return a count of 2
2) Where Job ID's have unit rate and day work associated with them, SUM the Cost? For example, in the above dataset, Job ID 1 & 2 have Unit Rate and Day Work therefore the measure would return a Cost sum of £240
Hope this makes sense.

@Anonymous , Try two measures like
countx(filter(summarize(Table, Table[Name], "_1", countx(filter(Table, Table[ Unit Rate or Day Work] = "Unit rate"),[Job])
, "_2", countx(filter(Table, Table[ Unit Rate or Day Work] = " Day work"),[Job]) )
not(isblank(_1)) && not(isblank(_2)) && [_1] >0 && [_2]>0), [Name] )
Sumx(filter(summarize(Table, Table[Name], "_1", countx(filter(Table, Table[ Unit Rate or Day Work] = "Unit rate"),[Job])
, "_2", countx(filter(Table, Table[ Unit Rate or Day Work] = " Day work"),[Job]), "_Sum", sum(Table[Cost]) )
not(isblank(_1)) && not(isblank(_2)) && [_1] >0 && [_2]>0), [Cost] )
Hi, @Anonymous
I created a flag column and two measures to meet your needs.
Like this:
Flag = COUNTX(FILTER('Table',([Work Type]="Day Work"||[Work Type]="Unit Rate")&&[Job ID]=EARLIER('Table'[Job ID])),[Job ID])Measure1 = CALCULATE( DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[Job ID]),'Table'[Flag]=2)Measure2 = SUMX(FILTER('Table',[Flag]=2),[Cost])
Below is my sample.
Did I answer your question? Please mark my reply as solution. Thank you very much.

Simple enough
| Thanks to the great efforts by MS engineers to simplify syntax of DAX! Most beginners are SUCCESSFULLY MISLED to think that they could easily master DAX; but it turns out that the intricacy of the most frequently used RANKX() is still way beyond their comprehension! |
DAX is simple, but NOT EASY! |

Hi,
Thanks for your response. I have copied your DAX meausure and changed table names where applicable and are getting the below error message
Any ideas?
