filter context not working

Hi,

 

my problem is

I need the distinct count of sport with string consist of ball/ team but only for won = 1

 

 

 

the orginal column only contain team,sport,alias,name

won & current count are addcolumns

 

addcolumns('table',"won",if(lookupvalue('table2'[player],'table2'[alias],'table'[alias])='table'[name],1,0),
"current count"calculate(distinctcount('table'[sport]),allexcept('table','table'[team]), CONTAINSSTRING('table'[sport],"*ball*")))

 

I need the expected count as result instead of current count

I'm not able to use won as filter as it as in addcolumns

 

this is table

teamsportalias         name
1handballp1john
1handballp2harish
1footballp5williams
1hockeyp6vivek
1tennisp3vimal
2cricketp7ben
2ball badminton    p4thomas
2tennisp8joseph
2high jumpp3

vimal

 

 

this is table2

player       alias
johnp1
harishp2
vimalp3
thomasp4

 

calculated table 

teamsport                     alias   name           won     current count             expected count

Hi @newbie9 ,

You can create two measures as below to get it, please find the details in the attachment.

Won = 
VAR _alias =
    SELECTEDVALUE ( 'table'[alias] )
VAR _player =
    CALCULATE (
        MAX ( 'table2'[player] ),
        FILTER ( 'table2', 'table2'[alias] = _alias )
    )
RETURN
    IF ( ISBLANK ( _player ), 0, 1 )
Expected count =
VAR _team =
    SELECTEDVALUE ( 'table'[team] )
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        DISTINCTCOUNT ( 'table'[sport] ),
        FILTER (
            ALLSELECTED ( 'table' ),
            'table'[team] = _team
                && CONTAINSSTRING ( 'table'[sport], "*ball*" )
                && [Won] = 1
        )
    )
