Count unique records in table by 3 calendar conditions

We have a table which includes 2 collums with dates, collum with ID and collum with owner. We need to count how many unique records are in the table on each owner, which considers our condition. 

 

Example of the table:

Date1OwnerIDDate2
16.06.2021Vika171230.06.2021
25.02.2021Vika151330.06.2021
25.02.2021Vika160830.06.2021
25.05.2021Vika163229.06.2021
25.05.2021Vika164830.06.2021
15.04.2021Taras164718.06.2021
31.05.2021Stepan165501.06.2021
16.06.2021Julia121325.06.2021
15.04.2021Julia141216.07.2021
25.03.2021Julia151530.07.2021
21.05.2021Julia164025.06.2021

 

The condition is:

date 1 < min calendar date

Date 2 >= min calendar date

Date 2<= max calemdar date

 

So for example. if we will put calendar dates like 01.06.2021-30.06.2021.

We need to count how many records meet our conditions. So in result we must receive:

Vika - 4

Taras - 1 

Stepan - 1 

Julia - 1

 

Please help us to solve this task. Thank you in advance!

Hi @DimaMD 

 

Try this one:

Count = 
VAR _Min =
    MIN ( 'Date'[Date] )
VAR _Max =
    MAX ( 'Date'[Date] )
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        COUNTROWS ( 'Table' ),
        ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[Owner] ),
        'Table'[Date1] < _Min
            && 'Table'[Date2] >= _Min
            && 'Table'[Date2] <= _Max
    )

 

Output:

Hi,

 

This measure gets your example result.  

Note, it uses DAX syntax introduced in September 2021 Desktop, so you'll need to be using that version.

 

Count = 
CALCULATE(
    COUNTROWS('Table'),
    'Table'[Date1] < MIN('Date'[Date]),
    'Table'[Date2] >= MIN('Date'[Date]),
    'Table'[Date2] <= MAX('Date'[Date])
    )

Sorry, but this measure does not work, result is blank
