Vendor Count

[nick9000]

Hi,

I am looking to create a card which will show the number of vendors used for the month. The report irs driven by slicers by year by month and I can currently get the vendor count in a table as a total at the bottom. 

I currently do this by:

a measure with distinct count for the vendor number

visual filter for the GL actual column to filter out blanks

From the example above, I would be after a card displaying the value 14 being a vendor count, for the given period (set by slicers), is there a way to do this?

Thanks

Hi,

May be a calculated field formula like this

=CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(Data[Vendor Name]),FILTER(Data,SUM(Data[GL Actual Materials])>0))

Hope this helps.

Thanks Ashish, 

You put me on the right track and ended using which seems to work:

vendor count = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(Data1[Vendor Name]),'Data2'[Detail PnL Name]= "Materials")

The filter was struggling with the GL Actual Materials as I didn't mention is was a measure as below, also with values to excludes being blanks.

GL Actual Materials = CALCULATE(SUM(Data1[Actual_Amount]) ,Data2[Detail PnL Name]= "Materials")

Thanks

Nick
