Most Frequently Occurring Text / Aggregating String Values

Hi All, 

 

I'm having trouble finding out how I can portray the mode of a text/string value using DAX.

 

Below is a snippet of my data.

 

I want to be able to show the Audit result by Division based on the frequency of the result, 

 

E.g.

 

FP Division = A

P Division = A

G Division = A

Any help on this!

 

Thanks

Hi @Peckle,

 

Just trying to understand your question. Do you need to see how many times a Division received A or AA in Audit?

@Peckle

 

Seeminlgy you need the most recurring audit for each division

 

Try this MEASURE

 

Measure =
VAR MaxCount =
    MAXX ( VALUES ( Table1[Audit] ), CALCULATE ( COUNT ( Table1[Audit] ) ) )
RETURN
    CONCATENATEX (
        FILTER (
            VALUES ( Table1[Audit] ),
            CALCULATE ( COUNT ( Table1[Audit] ) ) = MaxCount
        ),
        [Audit],
        ", "
    )

Thanks, this worked for me (after trying many other approaches!)

That's right. I want to display the most recurring audit for each division

 

Thanks I'll try this!

Hi @v-xjiin-msft

 

Thanks for reaching out!

 

Unfortunately, I couldn't get the second part of the syntax to return a value. 

 

Thanks
