Pie Chart: Positive Values vs Negative Values

I have a Measured column that shows the variance between 2 columns..

 

Measure: Headcount vs Laptops Difference = LAPTOPS[Stock_Count_Measure] - Headcount[Headcount_Measure]
 
This coulmn will then contain either Negative, Positive or "0" values. 
 
Whats the best way to get a pie chart to count and display the number of Positive, Negative and "0" values.

Hi @StuartSmith ,

 

You can do a caluclation as follows:

NegaticveCnt = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(tablename[Country]), tablename[GroupCol] = "Negative")

 

Do similar measures for Positive and 0.

 

Thanks,

@StuartSmith ,
I replicated some sample at my end as per your deets.

SO create first one calculated column:

Category Column =
VAR Diff = TblName[Stock Count Measure] - TblName[Headcount Measure]
RETURN SWITCH(TRUE(),Diff>0,"Positive",
Diff<0,"Negative",
Diff=0,"0 Values")

Then create measure like below:
Count Measure = COUNT(TblName[Category Column])
Then you can put these on pie chart like the attached screen shot:

Hi @StuartSmith ,

 

You can try created a calculated column as follows to use on pie-chart:

GroupCalc = IF([Measure] = 0, "0 Values", IF([Measure] > 0, "Positive Values", "Negative Values"))

 

Replace [Measure] in above DAX with your measure/column.

Thanks, your measure worked great, but then reaslied the result wasnt exactly what I wanted.  I now have a table similar to the below

2021-01-27_16-23-02.png

 

The chart is then conting each row, so Negative = 2, Positive = 2 & 0 = 1, but I realised that I need it to count each distinct country, so Negative = 1 (UK) , Positive = 1 (France) & 0 = 2 (Germany & Spain).

 

I am trying "DistinctCount" with your measure, but can figure it out.  Hope that makes sense.
