I am having an issue with trying to FILTER and COUNT value in column starting with the letter "AB", I tried COLUMN = "AB*" and COLUMN = "AB%" but both did not return any results, please help me.
COUNTROWS('database table'),
FILTER(
'database table', 'database table'[status] <> "Rejected" &&
'database table'[column] = "AB*"
)
You have search and contain string for that
COUNTROWS('database table'),
FILTER(
'database table', 'database table'[status] <> "Rejected" &&
search("AB",'database table'[column],,0)>0
)
