DISTINCTCOUNT of Transactions given FILTERS

I have a column of sales transaction where each row is unique on a customer-invoice-sku basis. It looks like this:

 

InvoiceDate  InvoicePeriod  InvoiceNo  CustomerID  SKU  Qty  Total

------------------------------------------------------------------

05/01/2018   05/31/2018     I001       C001        RI   10   $100

05/01/2018   05/31/2018     I001       C001        SW   20   $150

05/01/2018   05/31/2018     I003       C002        RI   20   $200

05/01/2018   05/31/2018     I004       C003        SW   30   $300

04/14/2018   04/30/2018     I003       C001        RI   10   $100

04/14/2018   05/31/2018     I004       C002        SW   20   $300

 

I'm trying to create a visualization that counts number of unique customers by InvoicePeriod, filtered by SKU (or not in the case of totaling). The resulting visualization table should look something like this:

 

Count of customers by InvoicePeriod

SKU    04/30/2018  05/31/2018

RI     1           2

SW     1           2

All    2           3

 

The idea is that this table should update based on Slicer selections. I know this requires a measure, but everything I write ignores filters and just repeats the same value in every cell.

 

Apologize for being such a newbie. Any pointers would be sincerely appreciated. Thanks much.

I presume you tried this measure?

 

Customers = DISTINCTCOUNT(Table1[CustomerID])

 

I can't see why this wouldn't work and give you a correct result no matter which way you slice it.

Not sure if I understand your requirement correcntly.

 

You can use the following DAX to get the unique count of customers filtered by SKU 

 

Count_Customer = COUNTROWS(GROUPBY(invoice,invoice[CustomerID],invoice[SKU]))

And then create a Matrix to get the following table:
