Fixed Measure Calculation

Hi All, 

I have dataset with 3columns i.e. (Group, Category,Resource ID)

 

 

groupcategoryresource ID
GACA1254
GACA2568
GACA6359
GBCA3598
GBCB1478
GCCA9852

 

I want to create 2different measures. i.e. counts by Group & Counts by Category;

WHEN i will drop groupcount measure without any filter on the canvas it should give me 6.

WHEN i will drop categorycount measure without any filter on the canvas it should give me 6.

 

However, when I will drop groupcount and categorycount  together and there is a slicer on catergory in the same canvas e.g.'CA" , it should give me count of 6 for groupcount measure and 5 for categorycount measure. 

In other words I want only same attribute slicer should change the number of that attribute otherwise it should display static number always. 

 

e.g. groupcount should give me 2 when i select GB from slicer and there is no slicer of category so categorycount should still reflect 6.

 

Kindly provide me with the measure formula 🙂

 

 

Regards,

Raheel

Hi @RAHEEL

 

This is kind a easy:

 

group = COUNTROWS('tablename'[group])

category = COUNTROWS('tablename'[category])

When you have a filter and select CA, it should give you 5 for category

etc.

 

Kind regards

Dear @RAHEEL,

 

You can follow solution of @miltenburger.

 

Or you can simply drag column Category into Values field, choose Count (or Count Distinct).

Then drage column Group as the same Category.

Then change the name.

Hi @miltenburger

COUNTROWS is not taking columnname as input..it is only taking tablename as input
