    Hi mlleverino

     

    Here are three calculated measures that might be getting closer.  I don't think I fully understand the Tool Count measure but this is what I have for your sample data.  It might only be a slight tweak away from what you need.

     

    Tool Count = CALCULATE(
                DISTINCTCOUNT('Table1'[Amount]),
                'Table1'[Account Type] ="Systems"
                )


Revenue = CALCULATE(
                SUM('Table1'[Amount]),
                'Table1'[Account Type] ="Revenue"
                )

Result = DIVIDE([Revenue],[Tool Count])

Account Type - Systems = tool count for that reporting period and for that BU

Account Type - Revenue = revenues for that reporting period and for that BU.

 

if I were to look at a one BU for one reporting period, it will have 1 tool count entry and 1 revenue entry.
