Hi,
Have a table with the following format
Adnumber Title Name
001 Bob
001 Fred
002 Bob
I want to be able to have a measure which counts the number of adnumbers with two titles
And then to do something like
something like
calculate(count(adnumber),count(title name)=2)
so 001 = 2 , 002=1
Thanks
Chris
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Anonymous,
You can try to use below formula to get the different count of year group.
Summary table =
SUMMARIZE (
ADDCOLUMNS ( Table, "Year", YEAR ( table[Date] ) ),
[Year],
"Count Titile", DISTINCTCOUNT ( Adnumber[Title] ),
"Count AD", DISTINCTCOUNT ( Adnumber[Adnumber] )
)

Hi @Anonymous,
Create a calendar table and extract year from the data column of the calendar table using the YEAR() function. Create a relationship from the Date column of your data table to the date column of your calendar table. Drag year from the calendar table to the visual or as a silcer or to the filter section. Select a particular year. Now use the IDSTINCTCOUNT() function.
Table 4 = SUMMARIZE(Adnumber,Adnumber[Adnumber],"Number",DISTINCTCOUNT(Adnumber[Title]))
Hi @Greg_Deckler,
Thanks for getting back..
Thats brilliant... How would I add a where clause into that?
Thanks
Chris
Would depend on where you want the where clause but you could do something like:
Table 4 = SUMMARIZE(Adnumber,Adnumber[Adnumber],"Number",CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(Adnumber[Title]),FILTER(Table,Criteria)))
Basically, wrap your DISTINCTCOUNT in a CALCULATE and add a FILTER clause.
Thanks @Greg_Deckler,
I got it to work ok
Table 4 = SUMMARIZE(Query1,Query1[adnumbr],"Number",CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(Query1[ttlcode]),Query1[ttlcode]="ENS" || Query1[ttlcode]="CN" || Query1[ttlcode]="WN" || Query1[ttlcode]="TS" || Query1[ttlcode]="HC" || Query1[ttlcode]="NWEM", YEAR(Query1[dateins] = 2017)))
but the year part doesnt seem to do anything?
I'd need sample data to replicate.
Adnumber Title Name Date
001 Bob 01/05/2017
001 Fred 01/06/2017
002 Bob 01/02/2016
So it would return where year is 2017
Number of Ads Number of Titles
1 2
Thanks
