Count rows in table visual with Field Parameters
Hello everyone,
I have a question.
Before that, I can use the COUNTROWS and SUMMARIZECOLUMNS to caculate the number of rows visible in the visual table.
But now we apply Field parameters, how can we know.
Code to caculate rows before.
No of Raw Table =
COUNTROWS (
SUMMARIZECOLUMNS (
'Product'[Franchise],
'Product'[STMS Product Group],
'Product'[STMS Product Name],
'CustomerType'[CHANNEL (groups)],
'Calendar'[Year-Month],
'Region'[REGION],
'Area'[AreaName],
'Customer'[CustomerName],
'Sales'[InvoiceDate],
'Customer'[Code],
"Value", 'Measure'[Value]
)
)
Thanks,
It's a two step process. Check the article at sqlbi.com . Fields parameters in Power BI - SQLBI
Unfortunately it is not (yet) possible to provide lists of columns instead of individual columns

As long as you use a measure to count your rows everything will keep working as before. If you use a calculated column then that will stop working.
Thanks for your answer.
Measure above to calcuate no of Visual Table based on the Fixed selected columns, but when we use field parmeters, the seleted columns will be changed and the rows in the Visual Table will be changed as well.
I try with perfomace analyzer and copy the dax code to Dax Studio, there are 2 parts of dax code and don't know how to use it with Field Parameters.

COUNTROWS(ALLSELECTED()) should work.
use as is. Don't specify a table.
Please provide some sample data. Are you using a matrix visual?
I am happy to inform that I could implement the solution for deriving countrows in table visual/Card visual with field parameters. It can be used in following cases -
1. Countrows based on User's selection
2. Field parameter has columns from multiple tables (More than 1)If my field parameter(Attribute selection list) has 7 columns,
1. Fact - V_fct_view (Column1,Column5,Column6,Column7)
2. V_dim1_view (Column2)
3. V_dim2_view (Column3,Column4)Fact is joined with both dimensions.
Field Parameter -
Attribute selection list = {
("Column1", NAMEOF(V_fct_view[Column1]), 0),
("Column2", NAMEOF(V_dim1_view[Column2]), 1),
("Column3", NAMEOF(V_dim2_view[Column3]), 2),
("Column4", NAMEOF(V_dim2_view[Column4]), 3),
("Column5", NAMEOF(V_fct_view[Column5]), 4),
("Column6", NAMEOF(V_fct_view[Column6]), 5),
("Column7", NAMEOF(V_fct_view[Column7]), 6)}Formula to get Countrows -
Countrows_Custom =
VAR cr = DISTINCT('Attribute selection list'[Attribute selection list Fields])
var tbl = ADDCOLUMNS(V_fct_view,
"C1", if(NAMEOF(V_fct_view[Column1]) in cr, V_fct_view[Column1]),
"C2", if(NAMEOF(V_dim1_view[Column2]) in cr, RELATED(V_dim1_view[Column2])),
"C3", if(NAMEOF(V_dim2_view[Column3]) in cr, RELATED(V_dim2_view[Column3])),
"C4", if(NAMEOF(V_dim2_view[Column4]) in cr, RELATED(V_dim2_view[Column4])),
"C5", if(NAMEOF(V_fct_view[Column5]) in cr, V_fct_view[Column5]),
"C6", if(NAMEOF(V_fct_view[Column6]) in cr, V_fct_view[Column6]),
"C7", if(NAMEOF(V_fct_view[Column7]) in cr, V_fct_view[Column7])
)
RETURN COUNTROWS( SUMMARIZE(tbl,[C1], [C2], [C3], [C4], [C5], [C6], [C7]))Note - You need to use Related function with dimension columns. The first parameter of Addcolumns function should be Fact.
Please let me know if you need additional details of the function used in the solution or logic applied to derive the solution.
