DISTINCTCOUNT except specific value

Hi,

 

I'm using in a dinamic table the function DISTINCCOUNT but this command counts the null value too:

 

DISTINCCOUNT.jpgHere I'm using the DISTINCTCOUNT and the result is wrong because it is counting the empty value:

 

NO-RESUME.jpgWith "No Resume"...

 

Is it possible to configure the DISTINCTCOUNT to avoid to count the empty value (or a specific value to define)?

 

Thanks.

Try this:

CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT([Ginclus]), [Ginclus]<>" ")

Of course you may have to make it: CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(Ginclus]), [Ginclus]>0) if you are using a zero instead of a blank.

Keep in mind, I don't know the absolute names of your data and these were just pulled from the image.

One of the ways you can handle this is by using calculate function . 

 

=Calculate(DitinctCount (<<>>),<<Filterexpresion >>)
