    Hi Harinihemanth06 ,

    We could create formulas to get the data that contains both pre and post. It is not supported to remove values with DAX. There are two ways as workarounds that you can reference.

     

    Firstly, create a column in the table.

    Column = 
    var d = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[Question ]),ALLEXCEPT('Table','Table'[Alias]))
    return 
    IF(d>1, "True", BLANK())

    • Create a measure to implement.
    Measure = CALCULATE(MAX('Table'[Alias]),FILTER('Table','Table'[Column] = "True"))

     

    • Create a new table to implement
    Table 2 =
    SELECTCOLUMNS (
        FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[Column] = "True" ),
        "Class ID", 'Table'[Class ID],
        "Question", 'Table'[Question ],
        "Question Order", 'Table'[Question order],
        "Alias", 'Table'[Alias],
        "Avg sat", 'Table'[Avg Sat]
    )

    Sorry for not being clear about my question.

    Let me explain

    We have multiple Class ID and multiple Attendents to the class so When ever an individual is attending a class we are tracking

    review by  pre and post questions.

    Here Question order indicates 1,3,5,7 as pre survey questions and 2,4,6,8 as post survey questions.

    Avg Sat Value is valied if only individual answers both the questions. so my requirement is to remove Participents details who have not answered questions in pairs that is pre and post.
