count filter if contains text - measure

Hi all,

 

I have this measure that looks for closed work orders by a specified date i.e.

 

Closed = CALCULATE(COUNT(wkaw[cmpl_date]), USERELATIONSHIP(DateCalendar[Date],wkaw[cmpl_date]))

 

What I want to do is the following, the raw data consists of the work order number [wo] where there can be 3 different types of work orders; the different types start with 'C' , 'P' or 'T'. How can i filter so i can have 3 measures closed p jobs , closed c jobs and closed t jobs?

 

I have tried the following:

 

Closed C Jobs = CALCULATE(COUNTA(wkaw[cmpl_date]), FILTER('wkaw',FIND("C", wkaw[wo],,0)))

 

But this calculation for all 3 work orde types dont tally to the closed total amount.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated

 

Thanks

 

Kevin
