    Your issue is that the count function returns null instead of 0 if there are no values. So, you need to modify your formula with an IF statement to allow it to return 0 when the count is 0. The formula is below. 

     

    CALCULATE1 = IF(CALCULATE(COUNT(Table2[Profit Center]),FILTER(Table2,Table2[Profit Center] = "P736064")) = 0, 0 ,CALCULATE(COUNT(Table2[Profit Center]),FILTER(Table2,Table2[Profit Center] = "P736064")))

    Hi nsexton12,

     

    Thank you very much for your help. I will try the advised formula for my learning process. 

    I literally just sorted the issue slightly differently:

    NEW formula Blue line:

    Stock PO's GR'd by Finance =
    VAR ForceZero = COUNTROWS('3 Source_KE5Z') > 0
    VAR Amt = calculate(count('3 Source_KE5Z'[Profit Center]),filter('3 Source_KE5Z','3 Source_KE5Z'[Profit Center]="P736064")) + If(ForceZero, 0)
    RETURN Amt
     
     
    result

     

    Keep learning.
