Distinct count if?

I have data that is similar to the below - 

 

rezboot_1-1723567116369.png

I need create a measure that counts the number of distinct outreaches were made per job filtered by OB Call, OB Call - LVM, and Prescreen.

 

For this example data the returned values should be Job 1 = 3 people, Job 2 = 2 people

 

Can someone please assist on what this would look like?

Hi @rezboot,

 

DAX solution:

 

Output

Candidate DistinctCount = 
VAR _candidates = 
CALCULATE(
    DISTINCTCOUNT(Table1[Candidate]),
    KEEPFILTERS(Table1[Note Action] IN {"OB Call", "OB Call - LVM", "Prescreen"})
)

VAR _blankTotal = 
    IF(ISINSCOPE(Table1[Job #]), _candidates)

RETURN _blankTotal

    ChangedType = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Job #", Int64.Type}}),
    FilteredRows = Table.SelectRows(ChangedType, each List.Contains({"OB Call", "OB Call - LVM", "Prescreen"}, [Note Action])),
    GroupedRows = Table.Group(FilteredRows, {"Job #"}, {{"All", each List.Count(List.Distinct([Candidate])), Int64.Type}})
in
    GroupedRows

Hi,

Use this formula

let
Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Table4"]}[Content],
#"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(Source, {"Job #"}, {{"Number", each _}}),
#"Multiplied Column" = Table.TransformColumns(#"Grouped Rows", {{"Number", each List.Count(List.Distinct(Table.SelectRows(_, (x)=> x[Note Action]="OB Call" or [Note Action]="OB Call - LVM" or x[Note Action]="Prescreen" )[Candiate]))}})
in
#"Multiplied Column"
