Hello,
Is it possible to calculate distinct count in the measure below? Here is my measure as it stands, which counts the values but I would like to do distinct count of the values.
Measure1=
VAR __table = SUMMARIZE('Table1','Table1'[year],"__value",[Measure2])
RETURN
IF(HASONEVALUE('Table1'[year]), [Measure2],COUNTX(__table,[__value]))E.g. here is measure 2 in action in table visual, which gives measure1 = 4, but I would like measure1 to be 3 in this case.
| Year | Measure2 |
| 2015 | 5 |
| 2016 | 7 |
| 2017 | 7 |
| 2018 | 8 |
Solved! Go to Solution.
See if an adaptation of something like below works:
Measure =
VAR __table = SUMMARIZE('Table2','Table2'[UniqueID],"__value",[Measure2)
VAR __values = DISTINCT(SELECTCOLUMNS(__table,"__value",[__value]))
RETURN
COUNTROWS(__values)

Thanks @Greg_Deckler that works 🙂 Is it possible to ignore blanks? i.e. not count the rows where values are blank?
