Distinct Count, Filter

I would like to know how many peple have less than 25 hours. 

 

I have a measure that calculates Hours= CALCULATE(ROUND(SUM(Utilisation[NonChargeableHours]),4), Matter[Nonbill Category]="Pro Bono")

 

Then I wrote the below mease to let me count how many people are below 25 hours, however, it is giving me the number of people

 

CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(WFE[Fee Earner Name]), FILTER(Utilisation,Utilisation[Hours]<25))
 
NameHours
A270
B24
C20
D74
E66
F10
G4
H428
I6

 

The answer should be 5 however, I'm getting 9

Hi @Anonymous ,

@gmsamborn  offers a good solution. In the meantime I have another approach to your problem that I hope will help you. Based on the information you provided, you are actually on the right path. I have modified your code slightly:

Below 25 hours = 
CALCULATE (
    DISTINCTCOUNT ( 'Table'[Name] ),
    FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[Hours] < 25 )
)

Final output:

Hi,

Revise the second measure to

Measure = countrows(FILTER(VALUES(WFE[Fee Earner Name]),[Hours]<25))

Hi @Anonymous 

 

Would this measure help?

 

x = 
COUNTX(
    FILTER(
        'Table',
        'Table'[Hours] < 25
    ),
    'Table'[Name]
)
