    yuvalpi OKK 🙂 So I didn't understand what you meant.
    This is the column you need:

     

    Column 2 = 
VAR _current_key = 'Table'[key]
VAR _result = 
    CALCULATE(
        DISTINCTCOUNT( 'Table'[release] ),
        REMOVEFILTERS('Table'),
        'Table'[key] = _current_key
    )
RETURN
    _result

VAR _result = 
    CALCULATE(
        DISTINCTCOUNT( 'Table'[release] ),
        REMOVEFILTERS('Table'),
        'Table'[key] = _current_key,
        'Table'[release] <> BLANK()
    )
RETURN

Hi again,

I have a followup question.

How can I ingore blanks in the Release column? e.g. for this table to count only the rel1 and rel3, but not the blank value as an item.

 

keydescriptionreleaseunique
111item for salerel12
111item for salerel12
111item for sale 2
111item for sale 2
111item missingrel32

 

thanks again,

yuvalpi
