    Hi khalilliraqui,

     

    According to your description, you want to get the count of resource owner persons which first name start with “j”?

     

    If as I said, you can follow below steps):

     

    1.  Create sample table, ‘Person’, ’Personal Source’ , ‘Resource Type’.

    ‘Person’:

    ’Personal Source’:

     

    ‘Resource Type’:

     

    1. Write the Dax formula of requirement:

     

    Recoure Count of Person Start with 'j' = DISTINCT( SELECTCOLUMNS('Personal Source',"Resource Type",RELATED('Resource Type'[Name]),"Count",COUNTX(FILTER('Personal Source','Personal Source'[Resource Type ID]=EARLIER('Personal Source'[Resource Type ID])&& LEFT(RELATED(Person[First Name]))="j"),'Personal Source'[Person ID])))

     

     

     

    Reference:

    LEFT Function (DAX)

    RELATED Function (DAX)

     

    Regards,
