Help with if Function in DAX

Hi all,

 

I am trying to show number of actions needed for my team. The idea is to create a DAX (or custom column if needed) to show number of items where some actions are needed.

 

Data table illustrated as below:

Here are the rules:

 

Main rule is: Only from items where

  • Status = "Open" or "Cancelled" or "Pending"

Additionally:

  • Information Request Status = "Waiting"
  • Group = "Sales"

So based on the table below, the measure should show 3 actions needed:

(On 1st row no action needed, because "Status" does not match the main rule)

 

Any tips for the issue? If more information is needed, don't hesitate to ask.

 

Br

Hi @jereaallikko ,

Try this measure:

#CountItems = 
COUNTAX(FILTER(T, T[Status] IN {"Pending","Open","Cancelled","Closed"} && OR(T[InfStatus] = "Waiting", T[Group] = "Sales")), T[ID])

Hi @ERD 

 

One more question regarding the issue.

 

How should I mofidy the measure if I want to add more conditions?

 

Just as an example:

All the previous conditions + action needed when Handler = Jake? or ID = 578344

 

I tried to add conditions to the measure as below, but it is giving error.

COALESCE(
COUNTAX(FILTER(T, T[Status] IN {"Pending","Open","Cancelled","Closed"} && OR(T[InfStatus] = "Waiting", T[Group] = "Sales", T[Handler] = "Jake", T[ID] = "578344")), T[ID]),
0)

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Jere

@jereaallikko ,

You need to use Or (||) operator in this case. https://dax.guide/op/or/

Hi @ERD 

 

That worked out well! One more question:

 

Is there a way to modify the measure, that if there are no actions needed, the result will show as 0? Now it shows as "blank". I am using Card as a visual.

 

Thanks in advance.
