Counting a coulumn values from another table

Hi Experts,

 

I have a table with following values

 

TABLE 1

 

Order#         Cell       Count of station

1                        C1              3

2                         C2             3

3                        C3              3

4                         C4              3

 

I have calculated this count based on another coulumn 'station' in another table which contains some of the values of 'Cell' like

 

TABLE2

Station

C1

C3

C3

 

As you can see count in TABLE1 gives sum of count from station.

I want output like this

 

Order#         Cell           Count of Station

1                         C1                 1

2                         C2

3                         C3                  2

4                         C4

 

 How this can be achieved. Any help will be appriciated.

 

I have used following formula for count

Count of station =

CALCULATE(

Count('TABLE2'[station],

ALLSELECTED('TEBLE1'[cell'])

)

 

Thanks,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  • This will work for you.
     

     

    Count = VAR station = Table1[Cell]
    RETURN COUNTROWS(FILTER(Table2, Table2[Station] = station))

  • Raaz I guess table1 has a relationship with table2, you just need to create measure COUNT(Table2[Station]) not sure why you are using ALLSELECTED

      Table1 and Table 2 are related but not directly. There are other tables too.

       

      i.e. Table1 is related to Table3

      Table 3 is related to Table 4

      Table 4 is related to Table 5 and then

      Table5 is related to Table2

       

      I also used simple count, but the output is same as I have written before.

       

      Thanks.

        Hi Raaz ,

        Because there are many tables and columns in your data model, I think it is better to share us a dummy file to test. That will solve the problem quickly and accurately.
