Just do a COUNT on "date" column.

DAX is easy, CALCULATE makes DAX hard...

Hey @Greg_Deckler I decided not to do that.

I prefer to count num for iteration for each Licence plate in my data set any ideas?

@Noak

A measure counting rows shall work, see the attached pbix file. If this is not your case, please post more sample data and expected output.

cnt = COUNTROWS(yourTable)
