Countx with multiple filters

Hi,

 

I need to count the quantity of people (resources) from a query. The thing is that it has multiple categories and sometimes there are people in a row that has No activity in that period like the following example with 0 Values. So in this case that resource has not to be considered but the following formula that I tried doesn't work because it considers that line:

 

Quantity Resources = COUNTX(FILTER('Resource Actual','Resource Actual'[Category]="Hours"),'Resource Actual'[Quantity])
 
My solution is to filter by "hours" and then the in the column "Quantity" by > 0  or 1 but not sure how to apply in DAX

Resource 410 - AnalystPayroll0

 

Any Ideas ?

 

Thanks !

@cristianml  Not sure whether you want to exclude if they have atleast one "Work Location" as blank or just exlude the rows which have nulls in work location

 

This will exclude only the blank rows of WorkLocation

 

Quantity Resources = COUNTX(FILTER('Resource Actual','Resource Actual'[Category]="Hours" && 'Resource Actual'[Quantity]>0 && NOT ISBLANK('Resource Actual'[Work Location])),'Resource Actual'[Name])

 

This will exclude the name completely from the count, if they contain atleast one blank value in Work Location

 

Quantity Resources = 
VAR _BlankWL = SELECTCOLUMNS(FILTER('Resource Actual',LEN('Resource Actual'[Work Location])=0),"Name",[Name])
RETURN COUNTX(FILTER('Resource Actual','Resource Actual'[Category]="Hours" && 'Resource Actual'[Quantity]>0 && NOT 'Resource Actual'[Work Location] IN {_BlankWL} ),'Resource Actual'[Name])

@cristianml  Try adding another condition in the FILTER as below

 

Quantity Resources = COUNTX(FILTER('Resource Actual','Resource Actual'[Category]="Hours" && 'Resource Actual'[Quantity]>0),'Resource Actual'[Quantity])

Hi @PattemManohar ,

 

Thanks ! but I realized that I need another condition, a third one. This should be that the column "Work Location" is NOT equal to "" (empty cells) or just the filter by Full cells. 

 

Is possible to add this ?

 

Thanks !

@cristianml I didn't understand that, where is "Work Location" field in the sample data that was provided above.

Hi @PattemManohar,

 

Sorry I didn't explain myself. Follow the column I refer to. There are some resources that has no information in this "work location", so in those cases also should not be considered.
