Identifying missing data

Good Morning

 

I need some help please with identifying where there is missing data in a table.

 

Example of the data is 

 

LearnerApplilcationCourse
101/01/2022A1
101/01/2022B1
201/01/2022B1
301/01/2022A2
301/01/2022B2


All learners should have a course beginning with an A, i need to idenitfy from the data the ones that dont.

So in the example above it would identify learner 2.

The applications will differ from those in the table.

 

Thank you for your help.

Create a new Meausre

CourseWithA = 
var var_numberOfCoursesWithA =
    SUMX(
        FactTable,
        IF(LEFT(FactTable[Course],1) ="A",1,0)
    )

RETURN
IF(var_numberOfCoursesWithA>0,1,0)

 

put learner and the measure into a visual
