Set total count as record count
Hi,
I have a table where I calculate the count of days, but I want the total count in all rows and not only in the of the TOTAL at the bottom of the table, I have shared the pics of my current result and the expected output, All three columns are from different tables.Also the count of days will have to decrease as the records decreases(I guess that will happen automatically in power bi), What DAX can be used to acheive this.
| Date | Weekday | Count of days |
| 1/2/2016 | Sunday | 731 |
| 20/02/2016 | Monday | 731 |
| 1/3/2016 | Wednesday | 731 |
| 2/3/2017 | Monday | 731 |
| 4/7/2016 | Saturday | 731 |
| Total | 731 |
Regards,

Hi Anonymous,
I assume that you added the day column directly from table into visual and choosed 'count' aggregation which returned 1 for each row, right?
To display the total count in all rows, please add a measure into visual which is created as below:
Count of days = CALCULATE(COUNT('TableName'[Date]),ALL('TableName'))

Thanks for your reply, I have used your DAX I get the desired output when I have only weekdays and Count of days, but when I include a column "Date" from Table 2 the values gets drilled down, but I want the same 731 as a result even when I include date column, is this possible with DAX?

Hi Anonymous,
Actually, the count values will keep 731 even we add another column into visual. Please check whether you have used ALL function in DAX formula as I mentioned above. Besides, if it still doesn't work, instead of using a measure, you can create a calculated column with the same DAX formula.
By the way, all above columns are from a single table, right?
