Calculate column:
Company = LOOKUPVALUE('Company Code'[Company],'Company Code'[Sector],'Template Codes'[Sector])Measure formula:
formula = CALCULATE ( COUNTA ( 'Company Code'[Code] ) + 0, FILTER ( ALLSELECTED ( 'Company Code' ), 'Company Code'[Code] IN VALUES ( 'Template Codes'[Code] ) && 'Company Code'[Sector] IN VALUES ( 'Template Codes'[Sector] ) ) )Regards,
