Distinct Count based on multiple column

Hi,

 

I want to display value which is as described below.

My calculation is like this

 

var a =Distinct count of value 1

var b= Count of Value 2

var ans=b/a

 

I want to display ans as my result.

 

But Problem is there I have multiple records for all records. That means for value 1 (distinct) I got multiple values. So my calculation is not properly set as my requirement. So please help me in this case. If Found Unique count that is based on multiple column(value 1 and value 2) for var b.

 

Thanks.

Hi @Krunalbpatel,

Please change the formula of var b to the following formula:

var b = COUNTROWS(
 SUMMARIZE(Table,Table[Name],Table[Value1],Table[Value2])
)


I create a table visual to display your expected result. For more details, you can review the example in this attached PBIX file:https://1drv.ms/u/s!AhsotbnGu1NogXByWhS2F551DemE.

Hi,

 

I have data like this

Id Name Value1 Value2

1 abc      1          1

2 abc      1          2

3 abc      1          3

4 pqr      2         1

5 pqr      2         2

6 abc      1          1

7 abc      1          2

8 mnq    3          1

9 pqr      2         1

10 xyz    4         2

 

Now my calculation is like this

var a = DISTINCTCOUNT(value1)

var b = COUNT(Value2)

 

My result wold give me like

abc 1 - 5

pqr  1 - 3

mnq 1 - 1

xyz   1 - 1

 

But I need

abc 1 - 3

pqr  1 - 2

mnq 1 - 1

xyz   1 - 1

 

For this I need to count distinct on multiple column so

1 abc      1          1

6 abc      1          1

this will result only 1

 

Thanks And Regards

Hi Krunalbpatel,

 

Test= SUMX(DISTINCT('Table'[Value2]),CALCULATE( VALUES('Table' [Value2])))

 

I hope this helps,

Christian

Hi cosborn1231,

 

No This will not help me. In this case I got the sum of distinct values but I want the distinct value count against value 1.

 

Thanks and Regards,
