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.
| Value | Count |
| A | 2 |
| B | 3 |
| C | 3 |
| D | 0 |
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 .
Hope it helps

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.
