Helper IIDAX expression for new column
Hello All,
I've long table (+25 columns - all of date type)
need DAX for calculated column - just showing total number of records per row.
if 1 row has 3 date columns populated - then in my calculated column it should show 3
hopefully this is easy ?
thanks
Hi neees78 ,
If you want to use calculated column, you need to unpivot all these columns. But you can add custom column in query editor since the blanl value show null in power query:
= Table.AddColumn(#"Replaced Value", "Custom", each List.Count(List.RemoveNulls(Record.ToList(_))))For more details, please refer to the pbix file.

It'd be easier if you unpivoted those columns, but if for whatever reason you can't, you could just do some sort of monster if - isblank formula?
