Measure that counts Active subscribers
Hello,
This is a continuation ticket from a previous ticket I opened, following my prompting mistakes, which accumulated a lot of messages that were simply difficult to follow and I was advised to open a new card. (https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/Product-table-and-subscription-table/m-p/2679518#M938530)
My Issue:
Attached File
In advance I should mention that a downloadable file is attached, there is also a formula that needs a little more precision (the formula was written by tamerj1, many thanks to him for the help)

Desired results: 
I need a measure that counts how many Active Status was in every month (or year depending on the filter context).
The rules are:
1. count only if in the end of the period the Subscription ID was in status "Active"
2. if there is in the same Status Date a status change, we need to take the highest "Status History ID" (PK) so this field will be the "Tiebreaker"
3. it should count as "Running Count", so if a Subscription ID was Active at Jan-22 and there is no status change whill Feb, Mar... the measure still needs to count it on those months
Hope every thing is clear.

You need to use a disconnected dates table for that, or a crossjoin.

unfortunately I don't know how to do it 😕

Hi,
I have contributed to your original thread. Have you reviewed my solution?

Hi Ashish_Mathur,
Your solution is this DAX formula:
DISTINCTCOUNT(Data[Product Id])
And it's not what I need as you can see in my question.

That is not correct. Please see the transformations (in the Query Editor) that i have applied to your dataset.
