Measure: DAX + 0 not returning 0
Hi,
Have this measure built, but it's still returning (Blank)?
Disposition =
CALCULATE(
COUNTA('CallRecord'[Final Disposition Of Call]),
'CallRecord'[Final Disposition Of Call] IN {3}
) + 0
As a test I changed + 0 to + 1 and checked, it does show 1 so I know the measure is working, it's just not showing 0 instead of (blank) when no count is returned for Final Disposition= 3.
For context: [Final Disposition of Call] is a Whole Number and contains values: 1, or 2, or 3, or 4, or 5, or 6, or 7 and it's never empty/null...
What should be my next step?
Thanks,
Chas
Hi Chas2002
Thanks - downloade the file.
I get exactly the same issue, but only on that particular visual. If I change to a table or other visual, zero displays correctly in the tooltip.
As a temporary fix, you could change 0 to any small enough number, for example the smallest possible positive decimal number 2.23E-308
So the issue appears to be not the measure itself, but the way that this particular visual displays the measure in the tooltip.

Hi Chas,
That's odd, because BLANK () + 0 should always be zero, so can't explain why it's not working in the first place
You could try this instead
Disposition = VAR Disp = CALCULATE ( COUNTA ( 'CallRecord'[Final Disposition Of Call] ), 'CallRecord'[Final Disposition Of Call] IN { 3 } ) RETURN IF ( ISBLANK ( Disp ), 0, Disp )Regards,
