I would like to create a pie graph that shows the frequency of the number of times a customer has 1, 2, 3 orders. etc.
Simple Chart:
The total orders is a calculated measure:
Customer Total Orders = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Document Attributes'[Document Transaction Number]),'Document Attributes'[Document Type] = "Invoice"||'Document Attributes'[Document Type] = "Sales Receipt")
Customer names come from a related dimension
It would seem that the calculated measure needs some sort of legend to exist in the pie chart (because it only shows the total number), but I am at a loss here.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @CLEARIFY,
I suggest you create a new table by clicking "New Table" under Modeling on Home page using the formula below.
NewTable = SUMMARIZE ( Table1, "CustomerName", Table[Customer Name], "Total Orders", CALCULATE ( DISTINCTCOUNT ( 'Document Attributes'[Document Transaction Number] ), 'Document Attributes'[Document Type] = "Invoice" || 'Document Attributes'[Document Type] = "Sales Receipt" ) )
You will get a table similar with the screenshot you posted.
Then you can create a pie chart, select the [Total Orders] as Legend, the count(NewTable[CustomerName]) as Values level. You will get expected result.
Best Regards,
Angelia
