Hi
I am new to Power Bi. I am trying to display count of data by date. Please suggest how to proceede, my data is like below.
I was hoping to display data in a table like below
1/1/2018 2
1/15/2018 1
1/22/2018 1
1/29/2018 2
2/5/2018 1
2/12/2018 2
and so forth.
Thanks,
Krishna.
Hi @Anonymous ,
Just create an count measure:
Measure = COUNT('Table'[Date])

Thanks for the respone, I tried the same but no luck. However, I was able to get it fixed, the summarization is not working because Power Bi not able to reade Date column as date. When I try to apply format to date it started working fine. Appreciate for time and inputs provided.
Regards,
Krishna.

Thanks for sharing the link, I did try same, however I couln't see the Date column which I should work for in Transform view. On the other, the date column is a derived (new measue) from other date column. Please advise is it something I am missing here.
Sincerely,
Krishna.
@Anonymous ,
the result i have provided is the grouping result..if you want to see the actual data source.then go to the power query editor,duplicate the source and then apply the steps what i have done..

Hi, @Anonymous , it's merely a matter of clicks on the Power Query UI,
| Thanks to the great efforts by MS engineers to simplify syntax of DAX! Most beginners are SUCCESSFULLY MISLED to think that they could easily master DAX; but it turns out that the intricacy of the most frequently used RANKX() is still way beyond their comprehension! |
DAX is simple, but NOT EASY! |
Hi,
Thanks for the reply, I try to follow the steps how ever I could'n see the data column in Transform as if the data column is derived from other date colunm. Please advise is there any other workaround.
Thanks,
Krishna.
