Hi @bestmbaman ,

 

It appears that your coutofemployees column is a numerical column, and you are trying to filter the precalculated employee number column.  Is this assumption correct?  However, if you have the data which has the information of

  • Employee ID,
  • Joining date,
  • Leaving date

instead of filtering the precalculate numerical column with date field, you can perform much more flexible headcount analysis, using a disconnected calendar table and a dax formula like below:

 

Headcount =
SUMX (
    'Employee',
    IF (
        MAX ( 'Calendar'[Date] ) >= 'Employee'[Joining date]
            && MAX ( 'Calendar'[Date] ) <= 'Employee'[Leaving date],
        1,
        BLANK ()
    )
)

 

 I attach a relevant article which discusses this topic.
