I have two tables, one lists "UserID" and other lists "TechMgrID," "CustServiceRepID," and "PMMgrID"
I have a third table that lists "CreatedByUserID," which I also created a relationship to "UserID"
I need to calculate how many "Notes" were created by the CustServiceRep, the TechMgr, and the PMMgr.

I tried
COL Notes = CALCULATE(COUNTA('dpmgr tblContactNotes'[Note]), 'dpmgr tblContactNotes'[IsSystem] = 0, 'dpmgr tblContactNotes'[IsAuto]= 0, USERELATIONSHIP('dpmgr tblContacts'[CustServiceRepID], 'dpmgr vwJMWebUsersSystemALL'[UserID]))
and changed the formula accordingly, but I don't think I'm getting the result I need. I need the count of how many notes were entered by each role

Cool,
According to your formula it will give u the Count of Notes from CustServiceRepID and UserID relationship.
1. when u use userelationship , other relationshiop on the table is disconnected automatically.
2. If u want the count of ALL note from the Existing three connection. u have to calculated at three level like
Measure =
Var CustServiceRepID = CALCULATE(COUNTA('dpmgr tblContactNotes'[Note]), 'dpmgr tblContactNotes'[IsSystem] = 0, 'dpmgr tblContactNotes'[IsAuto]= 0, USERELATIONSHIP('dpmgr tblContacts'[CustServiceRepID], 'dpmgr vwJMWebUsersSystemALL'[UserID]))
Var PMMgrID = CALCULATE(COUNTA('dpmgr tblContactNotes'[Note]), 'dpmgr tblContactNotes'[IsSystem] = 0, 'dpmgr tblContactNotes'[IsAuto]= 0, USERELATIONSHIP('dpmgr tblContacts'[PMMgrID ], 'dpmgr vwJMWebUsersSystemALL'[UserID]))
var CreatedByUserID = CALCULATE(COUNTA('dpmgr tblContactNotes'[Note]), 'dpmgr tblContactNotes'[IsSystem] = 0, 'dpmgr tblContactNotes'[IsAuto]= 0)
Result = CustServiceRepID + PMMgrID + CreatedByUserID
Let me know if any help
Worked for me , thank you !
These are the formulas I used, but they seem to be giving the same data and not correct data. They're all identical

Hi @bhmiller89,
If you want know how to use userelationship function, you can refer to Marco Russo's article:
