Hi,
Good Day!
Following is the data table:
OrderDate | Distributor Code | OutletCode | SRName | Category | SKUCode | OrderKG | SalesKG |
9/1/2019 | 14413 | 100033897 | Shipon | DDP | 403 | 0.48 | 0.48 |
9/2/2019 | 14413 | 100033897 | Shipon | DPP | 404 | 1.44 | 1.44 |
9/3/2019 | 14413 | 100033897 | Shipon | DDP | 405 | 0.96 | 0.96 |
9/3/2019 | 14413 | 100033897 | Shipon | DDP | 403 | 0.96 | 0.96 |
9/1/2019 | 14413 | 100033885 | Shipon | DPP | 404 | 1.44 | 1.44 |
9/2/2019 | 14413 | 100033885 | Shipon | DDP | 405 | 0.96 | 0.96 |
9/3/2019 | 14413 | 100033899 | Shipon | DDP | 403 | 0.48 | 0.48 |
Based on above table, want to calculate following result by using DAX measures in power BI
By Category, number of repeat customer:
Category | Repeat Customer # |
DDP | 1 |
DPP | 0 |
Total | 2 |
Thanks in advance 🙂

Hi @morab ,
below is my proposed solution: a formula repeatCustomer that counts the repeat customer based on the chosen category.
RepeatCustomer = VAR customerTable = ADDCOLUMNS(VALUES('Table'[OutletCode]), "numberOfPurchases", CALCULATE(COUNTX('Table', [OutletCode]))) RETURN SUMX(customerTable, IF([numberOfPurchases]>1,1,0))
And here is a screenshot:
I hope this is what you were looking for.

Hi @morab ,
I believe I found the difference: in Excel, you are counting as 'repeat customers' only customers that buy on at least 2 different dates. The formula I proposed counts instead as 'repeat customers' any customer that has more than one transaction, even if the transaction is on the same date.
As an example, outlet code 100032940 for category IFFO: this outlet bought 2 times both on September 26. This customer (2 transactions but on the same day) is not counted in the Excel, but is counted in Power BI.
To have a count based on different days only, I had to add a calculated table to the model. Here is the formula for the table:
Customer Table by Date = SUMMARIZE('Datatable','Datatable'[OutletCode],'Datatable'[OrderDate], 'Datatable'[Category])
And here is the new measure, counting repeat customers based on different days:
RepeatCustomerDifferentDays = VAR selectedCategory = SELECTEDVALUE('Datatable'[Category]) VAR customerTable = CALCULATETABLE ( ADDCOLUMNS(VALUES('Customer Table by Date'[OutletCode]), "numberOfPurchases", CALCULATE(COUNTX('Customer Table by Date', [OutletCode]))) , 'Customer Table by Date'[Category]= selectedCategory ) RETURN SUMX(customerTable, IF([numberOfPurchases]>1,1,0))
The result now matches the Excel:
The result now matches the Excel.

Here is the new formula, I took the time to simplify it:
RepeatCustomerDifferentDays New = SUMX(VALUES('Datatable'[OutletCode]), VAR dates = CALCULATETABLE(VALUES('Datatable'[OrderDate])) RETURN IF(COUNTX(dates, [OrderDate])>1,1,0) )
Hi @morab ,
You can find my solution attached:
https://finance-bi.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/customer-transactions-by-month.zip
Here is how it works:
Outlet No =
var numberOfMonths = SELECTEDVALUE('Number of Months'[number of month])
var outlets = VALUES('Table1'[OutletCode])
var purchaseByMonth = SELECTCOLUMNS(outlets,
"outlets", [OutletCode],
"months with purchase",
SUMX(VALUES('Calendar'[Year Month Number]),
var countTransactions = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS('Table1'))
RETURN IF(countTransactions>0,1,0)
)
)
var purchasedXMonths = COUNTX(FILTER(purchaseByMonth, [months with purchase]=numberOfMonths), [months with purchase])
RETURN purchasedXMonths
The variable number OfMonths is equal to the number of month selected (for example: purchase in only 1 month, purchase in 2 months, etc)
The variable outlets has a list of all the outlets
The variable purchaseByMonth is a table with all the outlets and a column specifying on how many months the outlet bought the product
Finally, the variable purchasedXMonth counts the number of outlets that bought for a specified number of months (based on the variable number of months).
Does this help you?

Hi @lc_finance
Good Day!
I have the customer transaction data set in the following link. I am trying to create a DAX measure to get the number of repeat customers who have purchased both in base month & any selected month.
For example, Customer code - 100082181 have purchased in October'2019 (Which is the base month). But not purchase in November'2019. So he will not consider as a repeat customer of Nov'19. But have purchased in Dec'19 so he will consider as a repeat customer for Dec'19
Expected Result: In Nov'2019, 28 repeat customers & In Dec'2019, 35 repeat customers considering Oct'2019 as the base month.
Sample data: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GBrpvtgWkNFPvzNUuZ0a4rB4SXq4prlU/view
Thanks in advance 🙂

Excuse me please,
I want analysis repeat customer from previous month ,calculate following result by using DAX measures in power BI
Result this below
Month
Jan Total customer id repeat customer from previous month
Feb 600 120
. 630 100
.
.
Dec 820 200
Thank you so much for recommend
Raw data is
Date cust id custname amount(Baht)
Hi @daedah ,
You can use the following formula:
Repeat customer from previous month =
SUMX(
VALUES('Sales'[cust ID]),
VAR currentCustomerHasSalesPreviousMonth = NOT COUNTX(FILTER('Sales',PREVIOUSMONTH(LASTDATE('Sales'[Date]))),[cust ID]) = BLANK()
RETURN IF(currentCustomerHasSalesPreviousMonth, 1, 0)
)
This formula works as follows:
- VALUES creates a list of the customers with sales during the current month
- COUNTX counts the sales in the previous month for the customer having sales this month -> these are the repeat customers
- SUMX adds up all repeat customers
You can download from here an example of the Power BI file.
Does this help? Let me know if you have any more questions

Hi @daedah ,
Can you share an example of your Power BI file?
You can upload it on OneDrive, Google Drive or a similar tool and then include the link here.
As the formula worked in the sample file, I'll need to see how your file is different from the sample file.

Hi @daedah ,
You can download my proposed solution from here.
I updated the formula based on your data model. This is the DAX formula now:
Repeat customer from previous month =
var datesInPreviousMonth = PREVIOUSMONTH('Sale_2017-2019'[BILL_DATE])
var customersCurrentMonth = VALUES('Sale_2017-2019'[CUST_ID])
var customersPreviousMonth =
CALCULATETABLE(
VALUES('Sale_2017-2019'[CUST_ID])
, ALL('Sale_2017-2019'[BILL_DATE].[Month],'Sale_2017-2019'[BILL_DATE].[MonthNo],'Sale_2017-2019'[BILL_DATE].[Year])
,'Sale_2017-2019'[BILL_DATE] IN datesInPreviousMonth)
RETURN SUMX(customersCurrentMonth, IF([CUST_ID] IN customersPreviousMonth,1,0))
Also- I was not sure if you already had formulas for the other columns you wanted: new customer count, new customer sales, and percentage of new customer so I added those formulas for you.
You can find everything in the Power BI solution file.
Finally, this is what the report looks like for 2019:
I hope this helps you! Let me know if you have any question about it.

It Great the Data it Correct
Thank you very much 💙🙏💙
Best Regards,

Thank you very much for help full 🙏
Hi @daedah ,
you can download the new solution from here.
As you mention, the new measure will count in October all repeat customers which were new in August or September.
Here is the DAX code:
Repeat customer from new customer 2 months ago =
var customersCurrentMonth = VALUES('Sale_2017-2019'[CUST_ID])
var dates1MonthAgo = PREVIOUSMONTH('Sale_2017-2019'[BILL_DATE])
var dates2MonthsAgo = PREVIOUSMONTH(dates1MonthAgo)
var datesPast2months = UNION(dates1MonthAgo, dates2MonthsAgo)
var firstDay2MonthsAgo = FIRSTDATE(dates2MonthsAgo)
var customersPast2Months =
CALCULATETABLE(
VALUES('Sale_2017-2019'[CUST_ID])
, ALL('Sale_2017-2019'[BILL_DATE].[Month],'Sale_2017-2019'[BILL_DATE].[MonthNo],'Sale_2017-2019'[BILL_DATE].[Year])
,'Sale_2017-2019'[BILL_DATE] IN datesPast2months)
var customersBefore2MonthsAgo =
CALCULATETABLE(
VALUES('Sale_2017-2019'[CUST_ID])
, ALL('Sale_2017-2019'[BILL_DATE].[Month],'Sale_2017-2019'[BILL_DATE].[MonthNo],'Sale_2017-2019'[BILL_DATE].[Year])
,'Sale_2017-2019'[BILL_DATE]<firstDay2MonthsAgo)
var newCustomersPast2Months = EXCEPT(customersPast2Months, customersBefore2MonthsAgo )
RETURN SUMX(customersCurrentMonth, IF( [CUST_ID] IN newCustomersPast2Months,1,0))
Here is how it works:
- customersCurrentMonth -> these are the customers in October
- dates1monthAgo -> these are the dates for September
- dates2monthsAgo -> these are the dates for August
- datesPast2months -> these are the dates of August and September
- firstDay2MonthsAgo -> this is the first of August
- customersPast2Months -> these are the customers in August and September
- customersBefore2MonthsAgo -> these are the customer that bought before August
- newCustomersPast2Months -> these are the new customers in August and September
The final SUMX counts all the repeat customers in October, which were new customers in August and September.
Does this help you?
