    Hi Julien74 ,

     

    Please try:

    New Table =
SUMMARIZE (
    'Table',
    'Table'[Serivice],
    'Table'[Date],
    "Month", FORMAT ( 'Table'[Date], "mmmm" ),
    "Count", DISTINCTCOUNT ( 'Table'[ID] )
)

    Since measure only return scalar, you must introduce entity columns to group data. Similarly, if you want a measure, you need to create a calculated column in the original table.

    Month = FORMAT('Table'[Date],"mmmm")

    Then new a meaure:

    Count = DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[ID])

    Then use [Count],'Table'[Month] and 'Table'[Serivice] in a table visual.

     

    Best Regards,

      Hi Shaurya 

       

      I'm sorry but i can't find 'Table'[Date] (but date is in my table)  in your formula and the month function accept only one argument.

        Hi Julien74,

         

        'Table'[Date] is simply the name of the table and date column in your model. About the month paramter, I missed a bracket.

         

        New Table = SUMMARIZE('Table', 'Table'[Service],
"Month", MONTH('Table'[Date]),
"Count", DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[ID]))
