Hi, @mmowrey ;

You could try it

dicount = 
CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[COMPINV. _ID]),ALLEXCEPT('Table','Table'[SHIPMENT_ DATETIME]))

Or

dicount =  DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[COMPINV. _ID])

Or 

dicount = 
COUNTROWS(SUMMARIZE('Table',[COMPINV. _ID]))

In my data, those is correct.  you could check the difference about you data. or share more infomation.

The final output is shown below:

Hello @mmowrey ,

 

Can you please try Creating measure as -

 

Measure = DistinctCount(Table[Compinv_id])

 

Please mark it as Answer if it solves your issue. Kudos are also appreciated.
