DAX Measure to find Distinct Category where Error Rate has increased

Hi ,

I need some help with DAX measure. I have sample table with different categories with Error rate for Quarter 1 and Quarter 2. I want to find distinct count of Categories where the Error rate has increased from last quarter to current quarter. 

 

Sample Data :

 

YearQTRCategoryError Rate
20231A20%
20231B10%
20231C15%
20231D5%
20231E10%
20232A10%
20232B20%
20232C30%
20232D10%
20232E5%

 

In above sample data Category B,C and D has error rate increased from Q1 to Q2. The expected output here would be 3.

@Vijay08V hi,

 

here is the DAX,

 

Categories with Increased Error Rates =
CALCULATE(
    COUNTROWS(
        FILTER(
            'Table',
            'Table'[QTR] = 2 &&
            'Table'[Error Rate] > CALCULATE(MAX('Table'[Error Rate]), FILTER('Table', 'Table'[QTR] = 1 && 'Table'[Category] = EARLIER('Table'[Category])))
        )
    )
)
 
output:

A simple use case of DAX Window function.

Expertise = List.Accumulate(


        {Days as from Today},


        {Skills and Knowledge},


        (Current, Everyday) => Current & Day.LearnAndPractise(Everyday)
