Counting Values in a Joined Table

Hi all,

 

could anyone give me an idea how to count rows in a joined table please?

 

I have a table of people (all unique records) joined to a table of dates (each person/date combination is unique) with a one to many relationship.  In the people table I'd like to create a DAX expression (DATE COUNT) which will count the number of dates for that person in the dates table.

 

People

PERSONDATE COUNT
1234_ABC3
1255_ABC1
1234_CDE6
1344_XYZ2
1499_MMM0

 

Dates

PERSONDATE
1234_ABC1/01/2020
1234_ABC2/01/2020
1234_ABC3/01/2020
1255_ABC1/01/2020
1234_CDE1/01/2020
1234_CDE2/01/2020
1234_CDE3/01/2020
1234_CDE4/01/2020
1234_CDE5/01/2020
1234_CDE6/01/2020
1344_XYZ1/01/2020
1344_XYZ2/01/2020

 

Thank you in advance for your help.

you need to just use COUNTROWS functions

measure =

COUNTROWS( 'your'table)+0

@Ahmedx thank you so much for your solution.  How could I change it to only count dates that are "VALID" according to another column?

 

 So if the Dates table now looked like this:

PERSONDATEVALID
1234_ABC1/01/2020VALID
1234_ABC2/01/2020VALID
1234_ABC3/01/2020INVALID
1255_ABC1/01/2020VALID
1234_CDE1/01/2020VALID
1234_CDE2/01/2020VALID
1234_CDE3/01/2020INVALID
1234_CDE4/01/2020INVALID
1234_CDE5/01/2020INVALID
1234_CDE6/01/2020INVALID
1344_XYZ1/01/2020VALID
1344_XYZ2/01/2020VALID

 

 

And the result should now look like this;

PERSONDATE COUNT
1234_ABC2
1255_ABC1
1234_CDE2
1344_XYZ2
1499_MMM0

Hi,

Write this measure

Measure = calculate(countrows(Dates),Dates[Valid]="Valid")

Hope this helps.
