Creating a Measure for Counting and Filtering

Hello,

I would like to inquire about creating a measure in Power BI that allows me to identify students who have had two opportunities. I have a table called "PRO" which includes a column called "idStd" that contains the student IDs. Additionally, I have another table called "Opp" idopp" that may have duplicate values if a student has multiple opportunities. My goal is to create a measure that, when applied to a table visual, displays  the count of opportunities equal to 2 along with the list of students .

Currently, I have achieved this by applying a filter directly to the table visual, where I select the Opp"idStd" column, choose the "equal to" condition, and enter the value "2". However, I would like to convert this into a measure instead.

Thank you for your assistance.

Hi @Chelly 

 

Have you related both tables by IdStd?

If it is the case, you just need to countrows in the Opp table

 

Num Opp = COUNTROWS(Opp)

 

and display the measure along with the list of students

P.S. If you want to display all the list but with a zero value for the ones that don't have any, use:

Num Opp = 
var opport= COUNTROWS(Opp)

return IF(opport=0,0,opport)

and you will get:
