Hi, I am trying to work out if we can create a single measure that will tell me the ammount of people in a list that have appeared more than 5 times.
So if Bob appears 7 times in [TableA'column 1'] and James and John appear 4 times in [TableA'column 1'] then I want the measure to show '1'. (As Bob is the only name appearing more than 5 times)
Ideally I need this to be flexible to what ever im filtering to on the visual, this is why I want this creating entirly in a measure.
Im probably really over thinking this.
Any help would be appriated!

Hi, @TFTF_BI
It's easy, you try using the function DISTINCTCOUNT.
Measure:
Measure = IF(COUNT('Table'[Name])>5,DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[Name]),BLANK())
This is the relevant document, hope to help you:

@TFTF_BI , try like
Assume you have measure
cnt = count([TableA'column 1'])
then create a new measure
GT 5 = Sumx(filter(valeus([TableA'column 1']), [cnt] >5),[cnt])
Just tried this method, This is very close, I believe its almost there.
This is now showing me the total count of 7 using the above as its counting bob has (<6) 7 times. How can we ammend this to give the unique count so its counts 1 rather than 7?
Let me know if this doesnt make sense. Thanks
