Multiple Filter (Countrows) which includes Text and boolean

Hello All,

I want to count rows based on filters which includes both text and boolean values.

 

Here  is my query which includes both text and boolean.

Overall_Green = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(Table1),FILTER(Table1,Table1[colour]="Green"),FILTER(Table1,Table1[Active]="True"))

 

but its throwing error as i cant use both text and boolean in filter.

 

Any other option than changing boolean type  to text ?

 

Thanks,

@NithinBN , if active is boolean first two should work. else try thrid one

 


Overall_Green = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(Table1),FILTER(Table1,Table1[colour]="Green" && Table1[Active]))

Overall_Green = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(Table1),FILTER(Table1,Table1[colour]="Green" && Table1[Active]=true()))

 

Overall_Green = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(Table1),FILTER(Table1,Table1[colour]="Green" && Table1[Active]="True"))

Hi @NithinBN ,

 

Because your Active column is boolean values, the judgment statement Table1[Active]=TRUE does not need to add quotation marks.

Overall_Green = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(Table1),FILTER(Table1,Table1[colour]="Green"),FILTER(Table1,Table1[Active]=TRUE))

 

Best Regards,

Stephen Tao

@NithinBN Try:

Overall_Green = 
  COUNTROWS(
    FILTER(Table1,Table1[colour]="Green" && Table1[Active]="True")
  )
