Hi @Anonymous , try measure like this:

Measure = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS('Table'),'Table'[Item]<>0 && 'Table'[Item]<>BLANK())

Or

Measure = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS('Table'),'Table'[Item]<>"0" && 'Table'[Item]<>BLANK() && 'Table'[Item]<>"")

 

Perhaps need to modify the measure according to the column’s data type.

@Anonymous , Try measure like

 

countrows(filter(table, not(isblank(Table[Item])) && Table[Item] <> 0 ))

or
countrows(filter(table, coalesce(Table[Item],0) <> 0 ))

@Anonymous Perhaps:

Count Measure =
  COUNTROWS(
    FILTER(
      SELECTCOLUMNS('Table',"Item",[Item]),
      NOT(ISBLANK([Item])) && [Item]<>0 && [Item]<>""
    )
  )


Count Distinct Measure =
  COUNTROWS(
    DISTINCT(
      FILTER(
        SELECTCOLUMNS('Table',"Item",[Item]),
        NOT(ISBLANK([Item])) && [Item]<>0 && [Item]<>""
      )
    )
  )

Not tested. To get a fully tested and debugged answer, paste sample data as text in a table. Not really enough information to go on, please first check if your issue is a common issue listed here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Before-You-Post-Read-This/ba-p/1116882

Also, please see this post regarding How to Get Your Question Answered Quickly: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/How-to-Get-Your-Question-Answered-Quickly/ba-p/38490

The most important parts are:
1. Sample data as text, use the table tool in the editing bar
2. Expected output from sample data
3. Explanation in words of how to get from 1. to 2.
