Measures not efficient

hi,

 

I use two measures (below).

Table 1_log_activiteit contains 600K rows.

Is there a way to make the measures more efficient?

Currently the desktop application stalls when I use them in a table.

 

correctie_door_adviseur = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS('1_log_activiteit'), FILTER('1_log_activiteit', '1_log_activiteit'[activiteit]=15))+0

 

correctie_door_adviseur_doorlooptijd = CALCULATE(SUM('1_log_activiteit'[doorlooptijd]), FILTER('1_log_activiteit', '1_log_activiteit'[activiteit]=15))+0

Need Help

    Avoid writting CALCULATE (COUNTROWS()),

    First create a measure with COUNTROWS() and stage that measure in another measure with CALCULATE. It will unnecessary Filter context! Try and let me know

    Hmm, this did not solve the issue.

    Any thoughts?

     

    acties_per_bestelling = COUNTROWS('1_log_activiteit')

     

    correctie_door_adviseur = CALCULATE([acties_per_bestelling], FILTER('1_log_activiteit', '1_log_activiteit'[activiteit]=15))+0

    It is not good practice to filter an entire table in your CALCULATE (best to do only one column at a time). It is also not good to add +0. See this article How to return 0 instead of BLANK in DAX - SQLBI, and try this measure instead.

    correctie_door_adviseur =
CALCULATE (
    COUNTROWS ( '1_log_activiteit' ),
    '1_log_activiteit'[activiteit] = 15
)

    Hi,

    Does this work any better?

    correctie_door_adviseur = COALESCE(CALCULATE(COUNTROWS('1_log_activiteit'),'1_log_activiteit'[activiteit] = 15
),0)
