Measure for DOES NOT EXIST

I need to write a measure that where EpicKey doesn't not exist in another table.

 

Epic table (Epickey, ProjectKey)
Issue table (IssueKey, EpicKey, ProjectKey)

 

The measure needs to give me a distinct count of ProjectKey where Epic.Epickey does not exist in Issue.Epickey

I think I solved it with EXCEPT.

Count of Projects = CALCULATE(
CALCULATE(
DISTINCTCOUNT(JiraEpic[ProjectKey]),
EXCEPT (
VALUES ( JiraEpic[EpicKey] ),
VALUES ( IssuesList[EpicKey] )
) -- Not in IssuesList
) +
CALCULATE(
DISTINCTCOUNT(IssuesList[ProjectKey])
)
)

Any chance you can post sample data from both tables? (as a table if possible, to allow us to copy/paste into Excel)

Hey @Anonymous ,

 

please take the time to create a pbix that contains sample data, but still reflects your data model. Upload the pbix to onedrive or dropbox and share the link.

 

Please describe the expected result based on your sample data.

 

Regards,

Tom
