I have an issue, it appeared simple but not getting the desired output. Below mentioned table should be in such a way that One ID is assigned to One Name i.e 1-1 mapping. Anything else is an invalid scenario.My goal is to tell what is the count of invalid scenarios present.
REQUIRED OUTPUT is FLAG of 1 if invalid and 0 for Valid so that i can take sum of all the invalid
In the below table there are two invalid scenarios ie. one name - multiple ids (ABC is assigned to 01,02) and one id - multiple names (SDF & SDT - 03).
I tried this but i feel there is a missing piece in it.
| Name | Id |
| ABC | 01 |
| DEF | 02 |
| ABC | 02 |
| SDF | 03 |
| SDT | 03 |
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Sarath5c8 ,
You can create a column like below:-
Column =
var correct_value=CALCULATE(MIN('Table (2)'[Id]),FILTER('Table (2)','Table (2)'[Name] = EARLIER('Table (2)'[Name])))
return if(correct_value = [Id],0,1)
Output:-

Hi,
I am not sure if I understood your question correctly, but I think, in this sample, all of them are invalid cases.
ABC -> two ids
03 -> two names
02 -> two names
Please check the below picture and the attached pbix file.
One Name One ID Invalid check CC =
VAR currentname = tbl[Name]
VAR currentid = tbl[Id]
VAR currentnametable =
SUMMARIZE ( FILTER ( tbl, tbl[Name] = currentname ), tbl[Id] )
VAR currentidtable =
SUMMARIZE ( FILTER ( tbl, tbl[Id] = currentid ), tbl[Name] )
RETURN
SWITCH (
TRUE (),
COUNTROWS ( currentnametable ) <> 1, 1,
COUNTROWS ( currentidtable ) <> 1, 1,
0
)
