I have a table with multiple columns. One Column is called Lic Type and another is called User. There are six different Lic Types and multiple users can be in each Lic Type. I want to group my repo...

    Something like this?

     

    Number of users = COUNT(SampleData[User])

    Hi PowerBrowse ,

     

    I think you can try ALLEXCEPT() function to create a measure or a calculated column.

    Total Group by Lic Type =
CALCULATE (
    DISTINCTCOUNT ( 'Table'[User] ),
    ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[Lic Type] )
)

    Result is as below.

    OR

Thanks for the reply but I think you misunderstood.

I need the Number of Users for each Lic Type in the form. Each user has a Lic Type and there are 6 different Lic Types in the table.

So.... I still don't understand. Can you post here sample rows with the data you have an what do you expect from that data? It's very hard to understand what do you mean only by description.

    Lic TypeUser
    AdminDenise
    ReadSimon
    WriteCarl
    ReadJulia
    ReadLaura
    AdminPeter
    ReadBob

     

    I want to Group each Admin, Read, and write group. After each group I want to print the number of each Lic type i.e after Admin I want to print "Total = 2" because there are 2 Admin users. After Read group I want to print "Total = 4" because there are 4 Read Lic Types.
