Hi
I got a list of caseid's and type of contacts with clients. I need to make the difference between id's where there has been a face to fase contact and the ones without a face to face contact.
I added a column in power quer with a simple if statement
Now I need to write a dax measure to get the number caseid's with and without a face to face contact.
Can someone help me out, point me in the right direction, show me an interesting article on these kind of scenario's?
thnx!
Solved! Go to Solution.

The the following two measures:
With_F2F =
CALCULATE(
DISTINCTCOUNT( Table02[caseid] ),
Table02[Face to face] = "YES"
)
No_F2F =
SUMX(
DISTINCT( Table02[caseid] ),
CALCULATE( INT(NOT "YES" IN VALUES( Table02[Face to face] )))
)

Ok @jochendecraene
This is a little tricky.

@Ritaf1983 @Fowmy thank you both very much! Both solutions are good!
I found another solution using power query, by combining all the values per id in 1 colom, add an if statement and than simply calculate bases on the outcome of the if statement.
Is this a good alternative approach?
Next questions a need to anwser are:
- how much types of contacts are there per id
- wich combinations of contacts and how many are there in the whole dataset
For the first question I would simply count the words per id
The second one for me is more difficult. I would have to take a step back and remove all doubles and then write if statement for the possible cominations
Are there any dax solutions for these 2 questions based on the orginal table?
Hi @jochendecraene
If you need to analyze data row by row, combining rows as you did, is not a good practice.
About the combinations, it seems like a logic of bucket analysis, please check these links:

Hi @jochendecraene
You can achieve the desired result even without adding a column.
You can use 3 measures :
1 Face_to_face = calculate(distinctcount('yourtable'[caseid]),'yourtable'[type]="face to face")
2. others_=calculate(distinctcount('yourtable'[caseid]),'yourtable'[type]<>"face to face")
3 Diff = [ Face_to_face]-[others_]
more information about "calculate" function is here:

hi @Ritaf1983
thnx, but that doesn't give me the result I need. Maybe I wasn't clear.
What I need is the number cases where there has never been a face to face contact and the ones where there has been one.
So the result shoud be:
cases with face to face contact: 5
cases without face to face contact: 2
