I have the following table in a Power Bi Report:
External Identifier | Entity Id | Source | Entity Name |
00/0000/0 | dc7706b1-6406-4a71-bdda-d6891c411c60 | A | John Smith |

00/0000/0 | b4146ae1-0ef1-4d35-8049-28cd18d510a4 | A | X Investments |
I want to filter the table so I only see the rows where an External Identifier appears more than once. Is there a way to do this?
Edit: Is it possible to get the count of external identifier per source?
Solved! Go to Solution.
@pauliduplooy , You could try this:-
Ext_count =
COUNTROWS (
FILTER (
'Table',
'Table'[External Identifier] = EARLIER ( 'Table'[External Identifier] )
&& 'Table'[Source] = EARLIER ( 'Table'[Source] )
)
)

@Samarth_18 thanks for the answer. This seems to work. If I have an additional column called source is it possible to do the above but per source?
External Identifier | Entity Id | Source | Entity Name |
00/0000/0 | dc7706b1-6406-4a71-bdda-d6891c411c60 | A | John Smith |
8090909 | 0dbe1894-c972-491b-af87-28f935d73e9e | A | ABC Company |
12345678 | cf955264-8a21-4640-93fb-b0974831033f | B | Amy Small |

00/0000/0 | b4146ae1-0ef1-4d35-8049-28cd18d510a4 | A | X Investments |
So essentially I want to get the count for each external identifier per source.
Hi @pauliduplooy ,
You can create a column as below and use it as filter on your visual:-
Ext_count = COUNTROWS(FILTER('Table (4)','Table (4)'[External Identifier] = EARLIER('Table (4)'[External Identifier])))

Thanks for the tip. I am almost at the right solution. Is it possible to apply the above solution but get the count of external identifiers per source?
@pauliduplooy , You could try this:-
Ext_count =
COUNTROWS (
FILTER (
'Table',
'Table'[External Identifier] = EARLIER ( 'Table'[External Identifier] )
&& 'Table'[Source] = EARLIER ( 'Table'[Source] )
)
)
