Hi,

 

I want to count how many duplicate values are in the column. But want this in a calculated column rather that measure.

 

thanks,

@vanessafvg Yes this is what I am looking

@Anonymous i can only figure out how to use it in a calculated measure

 

ie. 

 

calculate(countx(table, table[column])

 

will a measure not work for you?  the other way of doing it is to summarize the table and then create a relationship to it

ie.

 

summarize (table, table[column], "count" countx(table, table[column]))

@vanessafvg Thank you for your time. I have already tried calculated function with measure which is working fine for me. But there is requirement for a colunm which we need to add with desired output. I beleive we don't have any workaround for it.

must be a way to do it

 

also this

 

ie. 

 

calculate(countx(table, table[column])

 

will a measure not work for you?  the other way of doing it is to summarize the table and then create a relationship to it

ie.

 

summarize (table, table[column], "count" countx(table, table[column]))
