    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

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.
