Measure for a DistinctCount by Categories
Hi Power BI Users,
I have a table similar to below and trying to create a new measure by using DAX to get the distinct count of prodid&customers. In short, we are trying to calculate how many orders we have for each of the productID under each Customer.
Sampletable:
| Order | ProductID | Customers |
| XX1 | A | X |
| XX6 | A | X |
| XX7 | A | Y |
| XX10 | A | Y |
| XX2 | B | Y |
| XX3 | B | X |
| XX4 | B | X |
| XX5 | B | Y |
| XX8 | C | X |
| XX9 | C | X |
Desired output on 4th column:
| Order | Product ID | Customers | Distinct Count of ProdID x Customers |
| XX1 | A | X | 2 |
| XX6 | A | X | 2 |
| XX7 | A | Y | 2 |
| XX10 | A | Y | 2 |
| XX2 | B | Y | 1 |
| XX3 | B | X | 3 |
| XX4 | B | X | 3 |
| XX5 | B | Y | 3 |
| XX8 | C | X | 2 |
| XX9 | C | X | 2 |
I've tried out with below DAX but it shown error below,
Vvelarde, this has been resolved by added in "KEEPFILTERS".
DC Prod by Customers =
CALCULATE (
DISTINCTCOUNT ( Table1[Order ] ),
KEEPFILTERS(ALLEXCEPT ( Table1, Table1[ProductID ], Table1[Customers] ))
)THANK YOU!

Hi, try with this measure:
DC Prod by Customers = CALCULATE ( DISTINCTCOUNT ( Table1[Order ] ), ALLEXCEPT ( Table1, Table1[ProductID ], Table1[Customers] ) )Regards

Thanks, Vvelarde . This works pretty well if we are not filtering the data. However, lets say if there is a date column and we would love to filter by date and check what is the distinctcount, what can be
