I'm trying to count the number of values that are not zero nor null across multiple colums.
I think it has to CALCULATE(COUNTCOLUMNS and a conditional. But I can't figure the coding.
I couldn't get it to work. My co-worker suggested the coding below but the first line is giving me a error : SyntaxError : Token ')' expected. Does anyone have any suggestions?
#"SpecificColumns" = (#"Changed Type1",{"Database.EIA - 2024-2025", "Database.EIA - 2025-2026", "Database.EIA - 2026-2027", "Database.EIA - 2027-2028"}),
#"CountGreaterThanZero" = List.Count(List.Select(#"SpecificColumns", each _ > 0))
in
#"CountGreaterThanZero"
Above is a sample of the actual data. Also I replaced the null values with zero. I haven't been able to try your solution. Been sidetracked with other projects. Will try on the weekend.
This is simple to do in Power Query.
After your step that produces the table you show, add this code which will create a column names "Counts".
If there are other columns than the ones you show, use something like List.Range to narrow it down.
#"Add Counts" = Table.AddColumn(#"Previous Step","Count",
(r)=>List.Count(List.RemoveMatchingItems(Record.FieldValues(r),{"",0,null})),Int64.Type)
Hi @Anonymous ,
Please provide some sample data and your expected results, thank you!
Here I build some sample data for testing:
And you can use these DAXs:
CountRows_Value1 =
CALCULATE(
COUNTROWS('Table'),
'Table'[Value1] <> BLANK() && 'Table'[Value1] <> 0
)CountRows_Value1 & Value2 =
CALCULATE(
COUNTROWS('Table'),
'Table'[Value1] <> BLANK() && 'Table'[Value1] <> 0 && 'Table'[Value2] <> BLANK() && 'Table'[Value2] <> 0
)
