count per date

I want to show the number of products sold per date in a table visual.

 

I've got a measure NrOfProducts = COUNTROWS(Products)

Also I've got Products[sold on] of type date/time (not a Date Hierarchy btw).

Added both as values in the visual.

 

I want to see this:

Sold on  Amount
1/1/2021  2
2/1/2021  1

 

But what I see now is:

Sold on  Amount
1/1/2021  1
1/1/2021  1
2/1/2021  1

 

What am I missing?

    Hi Dicko,

     

    You can try measure as:

    Measure = 
CALCULATE(
    COUNTROWS('Products'),
    FILTER(
        ALL('Products'),
        'Products'[Sold on]=MAX('Products'[Sold on])
    )
)

     

    You can also removing other columns with different values from the table visual, and then your original measure will work well.

    Hi Dicko 

     

    Could you please post your table structure?

     

    Otherwise you can try like fllowing

    1) take date and product in the grid

    2) then click on the product column in fields pane

    3) now click on count

     

    It will give you the correct result.

     

    Best regards,

    maybe it only shows date without time for sold on column, you can try to convert sold on column from date type to datetime type to see if the time on 2020/1/1 is different.  Changing data type will not change the data.
