How to exclude zeros from my column count value?

Hi, 

 

I've created a conditional column that is a whole number data type and includes zeros. For some reason when I add the count of the column to the Value field of my visualization, it includes my zeros in the count giving it a value of one. Is there something I may be doing wrong?

Hi @dreaves1 ,

 

You can also try to create a measure.

Measure = CALCULATE(COUNT('Table'[custom]),FILTER('Table','Table'[custom]=1))

Change the Count to Sum and you should get the right number.  Counting a row with a 0 still counts the row.  How may rows in this list:

0
