Hi
I have data similar to the below:
- Marg ID can appear on multiple days
- Marg ID can either go through 2 or 3 statuses per day
- What I need to count is
- For each day, for each Marg ID:
- If Marg ID has 3 statuses for the day
- If the user is Auto for all 3 statuses, output is "Fully Auto"
- If the user is Auto for 1 or 2 of the statuses, output is "Partially Auto"
- If the user is not auto for all 3 statuses (ie it has a user name for all 3 statuses), output is "Manual"
- If Marg ID has 2 statuses for the day
- If the user is Auto for all 2 statuses, output is "Fully Auto"
- If the user is Auto for 1 of the statuses, output is "Partially Auto"
- If the user is not auto for all 2 statuses (ie it has a user name for all 2 statuses), output is "Manual"
Can anyone please suggest a DAX measure I could use? Thanks so much!

Hi @nsaray ,
Based on my test, I suggest you create a new table like this:
Then use the following formula to create measures:
1. For stacked bar chart:
count by date and type =
VAR _t =
ADDCOLUMNS (
DISTINCT (
SELECTCOLUMNS ( 'Data', "date", 'Data'[Date], "id", 'Data'[Marg ID] )
),
"Type", [Measure]
)
RETURN
COUNTX ( FILTER ( _t, [Type] = MAX ( 'Table(for legend)'[Value] ) ), [date] )
2. For table:
count = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(Data[Date]),FILTER('Data',[Measure]=MAXX('Data',[Measure])))
The final output is shown below:

Output =
VAR __st = DISTINCTCOUNT( INFO[Status] )
VAR __auto = COUNTROWS( FILTER( INFO, INFO[User] = "Auto" ) )
RETURN
SWITCH(
TRUE(),
__st = __auto, "Fully Auto",
__auto = 0, "Manual",
"Partially Auto"
)
| Thanks to the great efforts by MS engineers to simplify syntax of DAX! Most beginners are SUCCESSFULLY MISLED to think that they could easily master DAX; but it turns out that the intricacy of the most frequently used RANKX() is still way beyond their comprehension! |
DAX is simple, but NOT EASY! |
Hi,
You may download my PBI file from here.
Hope this helps.
Thanks for your suggestions
Is it possible to then graph it as a stacked bar chart ..
So per day, can I get a count of Partially Auto, Fully Auto and Manual
Sorry I'm quite new so your help is very much appreciated
Hi,
For that, we will have to write a calculated column formula (not a measure). Calculated column formulas do not respond to change in slicers.
I need to eventually get to this to be able to graph it as a stacked bar chart
| Date | Auto/Manual | Count |
| 1/01/2021 | Partially Auto | 1 |
| 2/01/2021 | Partially Auto | 1 |
| 2/02/2021 | Fully Auto | 1 |
| 3/01/2021 | Manual | 1 |
| 3/01/2021 | Fully Auto | 1 |
ok thanks, so do i just create a calculated column instead of a measure, is it the same formula?
Thank you, I also realised I need to filter only on where Status is Issued, Agreed or Finalised. There seems to be another 2 statuses that are appearing in the data that need to be filtered out. Are you able to account for this requirement as well?
@nsaray You can add a Visual filter on the Whole page and select on these status if you want
of course, thank you!
I do not understand the question.
