Hi guys,
I have a big problem with finding a solution. We want to reduce the number of shipments to <= 2 per month, per part number. I want to count rows where it was 3rd or more shipment of a specific part number in a specific month. in the example below rows 3 and 6 should be counted. I can't use RANKX because it's DirectQuery. I tried to create calculated grouped table but in table I have dates and I couldn't use YearMonth column from calendar table (related). Do you have any ideas?
Row | Supplier | Part Number | Date | Tracking Number |
1 | 0010 | A | 6/10/22 | 01 |
2 | 0010 | A | 6/11/22 | 02 |
3 | 0010 | A | 6/12/22 | 03 |
4 | 0020 | B | 6/13/22 | 04 |
5 | 0020 | B | 6/14/22 | 05 |
6 | 0030 | B | 6/15/22 | 06 |
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Anonymous ,
Please try this code to create a measure.
Count =
VAR _ADD =
ADDCOLUMNS (
ALL ( 'Table' ),
"YearMonth",
YEAR ( 'Table'[Date] ) * 100
+ MONTH ( 'Table'[Date] )
)
VAR _ADD1 =
ADDCOLUMNS (
_ADD,
"Flag",
RANKX (
FILTER (
_ADD,
[Part Number] = EARLIER ( [Part Number] )
&& [YearMonth] = EARLIER ( [YearMonth] )
),
[Date],
,
ASC,
DENSE
)
)
RETURN
COUNTAX (
FILTER ( _ADD1, [Part Number] = MAX ( 'Table'[Part Number] ) && [Flag] > 2 ),
[Flag]
)
Result is as below.

It works. Thank you.
EDIT. I want to count excesive shipments in total (without splitting to part numbers) and this need to work with Supplier slicer.
