Timestamp Nested If

I work in a manufacturing setting.

 

I am trying to create a dashboard that will tell me how many units I've started that day.

 

Currently I have created a new column with the following.

 

VStart = IF(Query1[WRK_AREA]="CLES10000",IF(DAY(Query1[ARRIVAL_TS])=TODAY(),"True","False"),"False")

 

A started unit counts when it reaches the WRK-AREA "CLES10000".

 

I have validated that the data I want to retrieve is in my data set.

 

Any advice/help?

Hi @aarikc17,

 

Based on my understanding, you want to count how many records when [WRK-AREA] is "CLES10000" and [ARRIVAL_TS] equals today, right?

 

You can create a measure below:

 

Measure = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS('Query1'),FILTER(ALL(Query1),'Query1'[WRK_AREA]="CLES10000" && 'Query1'[ARRIVAL_TS]=TODAY()))

If above doesn't meet your requirement, please clarify which results you want based on the dummy data.

This calculate measure worked yesterday, but today the count is (blank).

CountAX seems to be working

How would you do this with a direct query?
