How to replace empty cells to zero (0) in matrix column values using direct mode.

i am using direct query, 2 columns product service, product status and below is sample data


product service, product status
phase 1               open
phase 2               started
phase 3                waiting
phase 4                comlpleted

 

when i use this data into matrix i got below view, assume there are 30 open rows for phase 1,20 started rows for phase 2, 10 waiting rows for phase 3
and 05 completed rows for phase 4 then my matrix shows like below

 

product statusop    open, started, waiting , comlpleted
product service 
phase1                   30
phase 2                                25
phase 3                                                 20
phase 4                                                                 05


in above matrix view i am getting empty values when there is no prodcuts compare with other phases, here i would like to show 0
when there is no prodcuts assigned or there is no data (null or blank)

 

in matrix rows are product service
columns are product status
values are count(product service)

 

my expected output like below
product status open started waiting comlpleted
product service
phase 1             30        0          0               0
phase 2              0        25         0                0
phase 3              0        0          10               0
phase 4              0        0            0             0
phase 4             0         0            0             05

 

i have tried with checking by isblank() like below
emptystatus= var test=calculate(count(table[product status])) return if(emptystatus= blank(),0,emptystatus)

and tried with diffrent options but still i am unable to show 0 where there is no data associated when the data is transorm into matrix.

 

Please look into this and provide your inputs. Thank you

 

Thank you

    This can  e achieved by adding +0. A sample dax is below, create something like this

    Measure Value = CALCULATE([Measure]+0,'Table'[Column] in DISTINCT('Column'[Column]))

     

    Appreciate your kudos.

    Mark my post as solution if this helps.

      Hi NikhilKumar,

      Thank you for your response and time

       

      Actually i have tried with given logic but its look like still am getting blank instead of 0.
      here is my updated dax.

      Measure Value = CALCULATE([Measure]+0,'Table'[Column] in DISTINCT('Column'[Column]))


      statuscount=CALCULATE(count(table(productservice)+0,'Table'[product service] in DISTINCT('Table[[product service]))

      here is how the data look like for some example

       

      product status product service
      open                 phase1
      open                 phase1
      open                  phase1
      completed         phase 2
      completed          phase 2
      completed          phase 2
      completed          phase 2

       

      after adding data into matrix :

      Product status         open    completed
      product service
      phase1                      3
      phase2                                      4

       

      in above example i would like show 0 when there is no data associated with rows and columns

      my expected output like below:


      Product status           open          completed
      product service
      phase1                       3                      0
      phase2                       0                      4

       

      rows iam using as product service , columns using as Product status and values given as count(product service)
      here to avoid blanks i have used adding +0 in count(product service),tried with comparing length of the count and also tried with new logic suggested by you. but still iam not able to show 0 intstead of blank .

       

      please check and suggest your ideas. Thank you.

       

      Thanks,
