Hello, I work from construction company.
I would like to count two type of data which are naming start with "RFI-A" and "RFI-BS"
Can I do this in single column?
Thank you so much!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Try this two measures,
RFI-A = CALCULATE(
COUNT('Table (2)'[RFI NO]),CONTAINSSTRING('Table (2)'[RFI NO],"RFI-A"))RFI-BS = CALCULATE(
COUNT('Table (2)'[RFI NO]),CONTAINSSTRING('Table (2)'[RFI NO],"RFI-BS"))
Thanks,

The formula not work....
Am I missing somethings?
You are missing close bracket for count and remove one close bracket at the end.
Put a ) at yellow marked place before the comma and remove bracket at red marked place at the end of the formula..

Hi @RickyTWK ,
You can use COUNTX function and create a measure .
