    Hi  sandersonmm ,

    Count Distinct Rows – Displays the distinct number of rows in a grouping.

    When the Group by function selects Count-related operations, Column will not display columns, but will directly affect all rows. When operations such as SUM, AVG, etc. are selected, they will be displayed.

     

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-query/group-by

    You can also do it with the dax function:

    Main table:

    Create calculated table.

    Table 2 =
    SUMMARIZE(
        'Table','Table'[Created Date/Time],'Table'[Closed Date/Time],"ID",DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[Case ID]))

     

    Best Regards,
