Requesting help with DAX Measure OR Custom Column

dave24meyers_1-1642105954403.png

"AD CalendarDate" and "DiscoveryDate: are linked = Many to Many

Each "Activity ID" (left) has a "AD ProgramName"

Both tables have "AD Genesis ID" and "JobSeekerID". I know I need to link those. 

 

I would like to see the highest count of "AD ProgramName" per "AD GenesisID" / "JobSeekerID" when there is a "PlacementNumber"

Hi @Anonymous ,

According to your description, I suggest you make relationship by "AD Genesis ID" and "JobSeekerID" columns.

I create a sample.

Table1

vkalyjmsft_0-1642585680379.png

Table2

vkalyjmsft_1-1642585700331.png

In this sample,  the highest count of "AD ProgramName" per "AD GenesisID" / "JobSeekerID" when there is a "PlacementNumber" should be 2(the count of AD GenesisID is 2).

Here's my solution, create a measure.

Max Count =
VAR _T =
    SUMMARIZE (
        'Table1',
        'Table1'[AD GenesisID],
        "Count",
            CALCULATE (
                COUNT ( 'Table1'[AD ProgramName] ),
                FILTER (
                    ALL ( 'Table1' ),
                    'Table1'[AD GenesisID] = MAX ( 'Table1'[AD GenesisID] )
                ),
                NOT ( 'Table2'[PlacementNumber] = BLANK () )
            )
    )
RETURN
    MAXX ( _T, [Count] )

Get the result.

Hi @Anonymous 

 

As @Greg_Deckler mentioned, Can you post sample data as text and expected output?
Not enough information to go on;

please see this post regarding How to Get Your Question Answered Quickly:

The most important parts are:
1. Sample data as text, use the table tool in the editing bar
2. Expected output from sample data
3. Explanation in words of how to get from 1. to 2.
4. Relation between your tables

Appreciate your Kudos!!

Hi, @Anonymous 

In case that these two tables are fact, I would not recommed many-to-many. If your data allow to use (extract) dimensions as tables related (single) to both fact tables will be better.
