cumulative count of counted text in a column

[amehmood]

I would appreciate if you could assist me in the following.

I need a simple DAX for running the sum of counts of a column that contains the text.

I need to count, for instance, "Medium" from a column titled Level and then create a running sum of the counts. The expected visual counts by month for various years as a bar chart and as a line cumulative of counts by month.

I hope you would be able to help.

Thanks,

Hi,

You may download my PBI file from here.

Hope this helps.

So a running total is generally constructed along the lines of

Measure =

  VAR __Date = MAX('Table[Date])

  COUNTROWS(

    FILTER('Table',[Level] = "Medium" && 'Table'[Date] <= __Date)

  )

Column would be:

Column =

  VAR __Date = [Date]

  COUNTROWS(

    FILTER('Table',[Level] = "Medium" && 'Table'[Date] <= __Date)

  )

But sample data would help to make sure. Please see this post regarding How to Get Your Question Answered Quickly: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/How-to-Get-Your-Question-Answered-Quickly/ba-p/38490

Hi

I tried the following  

measure 2 =

countrows(Filter( (data), data[level]="Death" && data[Date] <= MAX (data[Date]))

)

The above seems ok but not sure the error from following: too fee arguments are passed through filters.......

Column =

Countrows (FILTER(data), data[level]="death" && data[Date] <= MAX (data[Date])

)

please assist.

You should delete the parentheses around data in your Filter.
