How can I display 0 count values on a table filtered with values from another table?

Good afternoon

 

I have 2 tables.

TblRef
A
B
C
D

 

and

 

tblmain
A
B
C
D
E
F
G
H
A
B
B
C
C

 

I want to dsiplay a table which filters tblMain to teh values in tblRef, and displays 0 values.

 

In the examples above I want the display table output to look as below.

 

ValueCount
A2
B3
C3
D0

How do I achieve this?

 

I cannot seem to get the filter correct and when I use a measure to count, I tried adding +0 to the end which then gave me the non tblref values.

 

I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi @MyWeeLola - if a value from tblRef does not exist in tblMain, it still shows a count of 0. but D is present in main table so we are gtting 1 . 

 

Count for tblRef =
VAR refValues = SELECTEDVALUE(Tblref[TblRef])
RETURN
    CALCULATE(
        COUNTROWS(tblMain),
        Tblmain[tblmain] = refValues
    )

Hello @MyWeeLola,

Make relationship your table one to many. İf TblRef have unique values.

After that You use below the dax code and for example my column name is "Text" but ı take the column from dimension table which means unique column table.

However, you can't use the masure in slicer. So that I recommend to use the measure as filter pane.
