Count the number of times the key and value has been repeated (recurrence)

Hello everyone. I need help with the following question.

 

In the dataset, I evaluate things like "good" or "bad". We need to count the times that "bad" responses repeats itself more than once for the place and the item being evaluated.


This is an example: 
* Bad Responses are items evaluated as bad: Bad Responses

Bad Responses = CALCULATE( COUNTROWS (Table[Response]), Response == 'Bad')

 

* Wrong Measure is the number of times "Bad Response" appeared more than once. I thought it would work as (Bad Response - 1) as it is right now, but the grand total is wrong - I suspect that it is calculating "[Bad Responses] -1",  subtracting = the totals, and not the sum of the row values as I need it to.

Sample data below:

IDPlaceItem NameResponse
1CopacabanaItem 1Bad
2CopacabanaItem 1Bad
3CopacabanaItem 1Bad
4CopacabanaItem 2Bad
5CopacabanaItem 2Bad
6Corporate ParkItem 1Bad
7Corporate ParkItem 2Bad
8Corporate ParkItem 2Bad

 

The expected output is:

PlaceBad RatingsRecurrence 
Copacabana53
Corporate Park31
TOTAL84

 

The 4 in Recurrence is the 2 times "Item 1" in Copacabana was rated "bad" beyond the first bad rating, plus one bad rating to "Item 2" beyond the first, and plus one bad rating from "Item 2" on Corporate Park beyond the first bad rating on Item 2. 

 

I tried constructing a dimension table and doing a sum, but the date property of the data would not function correctly when using slicers.

 

 

Thanks in advance!

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Please create following measures:

 

Count_bad = CALCULATE(COUNT('Table'[Response]),ALL('Table'[Item Name]))

Count_bad-1 = IF(COUNT('Table'[Response]) >1,COUNT('Table'[Response])-1)

Count_all_bad-1 = SUMX(ALL('Table'[Item Name]),[Count_bad-1])

Count_sum_bad-1 = SUMX(ALL('Table'[Place]),[Count_all_bad-1])

Bad_response = IF(ISINSCOPE('Table'[Place]), [Count_all_bad-1],[Count_sum_bad-1])

 

 

You will get the result you want:

@Anonymous Try:

Measure = 
  VAR __Table = 'Table'
  VAR __Table1 = GROUPBY(FILTER(__Table,[Item],[Response] = "Bad"),"__Count",COUNTX(CURRENTGROUP(),[ID]))
  VAR __Rows = COUNTROWS(__Table1)
  VAR __Result = SUMX(__Table1,[__Count]) - __Rows
RETURN
  __Result
