Distinct count when count of elements are higher than

[Andrylodra]

hello everyone,

I'm trying to do the following with no useful result.

I have to get the list of unique names and their numbers from a column in a table. Furthermore, i have to calculate the total number of the overall list.  However, the list should consider only the values that are repeated for a number of times greater than x (for example 1)

For example:

A

A

A

B

B

B

C

D

D

This should result in a list made of:

A	3
B	3
D	2

And a total distinct count measure of 8, because we don't consider "C"

How can i do this? I know of the distinct and distinctcount functions, but i'm not able to filter my table in the correct way.

Sorry but i'm new to PBI and i cant figure it out.

Thank you all for the help

Hi @Andrylodra ,

According to your description, here are my steps you can follow as a solution.

(1) My test data is the same as yours.

(2) We can create measures. 

Measure = 
var _a=CALCULATE(MAX('Table'[List]),FILTER('Table',COUNT('Table'[List])>1))
var _b= DISTINCT('Table'[List])
return IF(_a in _b ,1,0)

list count = COUNTROWS(FILTER('Table','Table'[Measure]=1))

filtered out = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[List]),FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Table'),[list count]<>BLANK()))

(3) Then the result is as follows.

This solves a part of the problem, thanks.

Is there a way to count how many names were filtered out (in this case 3, because we have A,B and D)?

I can't use distinctcount on a measure if I'm correct
