    Hey EmiliaB_123 ,

     

    you would create a measure for the zeros like this one:

    Zeros =
CALCULATE(
    COUNTROWS(myTable)
    myTable[ColumnWithZeroValues] = 0
)

     

    And a similar for the ones and a normal COUNTROWS without the filter for all values. Then you can use all of the measures in the selected time period and you get your result.

     

    If you need any help please let me know.
    If I answered your question I would be happy if you could mark my post as a solution ✔️ and give it a thumbs up 👍
     
    Best regards

HI selimovd ,

I have one last question. I tried out the formula with the time reference as well and now I don´t get any values.

My DIM_Date table looks like this:

What could be the problem?

 

Thanks.

Hey EmiliaB_123 ,

 

I would guess it's the relationship between the date table and the fact table.

Can you do a double click on the relationship in the relationship view and check if they are connected by the right column?

 

Best regards

Denis

      EmiliaB_123  also looks good for me. I could take a look into the file if it doesn't contain confidential information or if you could remove sensitive data.
      Otherwise it's a little hard to say without investigating further.

        selimovd I unfortunately can´t share the file. Taking the confidential data out of it would also mean to take data out of the formula this problem is referring to. I´ll try to check it by myself. Thank you.
