I have a formula that works great in Excel,
IF([@[Assigned]]="","",(LEN([@[Assigned]])-LEN(SUBSTITUTE([@[Assigned]],"ASSIGNED","")))/8"))
Example entry from Table[Assigned]:
ASSIGNED_Material ID 123- 600010 - Lot: 4444 (31-Aug-2018), ASSIGNED_Material ID 333- 6023 - Lot: 3133 (31-Aug-2019)
LEN count ASSIGNED = 16 characters divided by the amount of letters in ASSIGNED = answer = 2
I am struggling with the DAX equivilant
= IF ( Table[Assigned] = BLANK (), BLANK (), ( LEN ( Table[Assigned] ) - LEN ( SUBSTITUTE ( Table[Assigned], "ASSIGNED", BLANK () ) / 8) ) ) )
Tips greatly apprecaited
Solved! Go to Solution.
Try:
Column = IF ( 'Table'[Assigned] = BLANK (), BLANK (), DIVIDE ( LEN ( 'Table'[Assigned] ) - LEN ( SUBSTITUTE ( 'Table'[Assigned], "ASSIGNED", BLANK () ) ), 8 ) )

I am having trouble deciphering your column headers and their values. Please format as table or provide datafile sample.

In early construction of the Dax formula this error popped up from time to time but then dissappeared.
Calculation error in column 'Table[Assigned]" xxxx of type text to type number
