 - hi ,

      I need count of my bidc column where "all units usa" measure is greater than 10.

      I am not able to write measure inside a calculate function as filter.

      =Calculate(count(dac),[all units usa]>10)   ---this is showing error.. even i tried with variable still getting a error.

     any help ?

     Thanks

What is the error and how is the measure [all units usa] constructed?

hist units usa:=TRUNC(SUMX(product, product[historical_qty_usa])/[num distinct periods],2)

 [all units usa]  = CALCULATE([hist units usa],FILTER(all('date'[date_key]), 'date'[date_key]=max('date'[date_key])))

Now i want to create a measure like 

[usa sku count] =  calculate(count(product[sku]), [all units usa] >1)

error msg - 

A function 'CALCULATE' has been used in a True/False expression that is used as a table filter expression. This is not allowed.

hope i am able to clear you the requirement.

Hi @nsatyabrat7 ,

Share sample data if you can.

else try

[usa sku count] =
VAR _allunitsusa = [all units usa]
RETURN
    COUNTX (
        FILTER (
            'Product',
            _allunitsusa > 1
        ),
        Product[Sku]
    )

Regards,
Harsh Nathani

Hi @nsatyabrat7 

You can't use a measure inside a boolean expression that is used as filter expression. There are certain rules related to this

 Refer to this: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dax/calculate-function-dax

Apart from this your measure [usa sku count] =  calculate(count(product[sku]), [all units usa] >1) doesn't refer any column which needs to be filtered.

hi, i understand those rules about calculate function..but i am looking for a help or work around.

Hi @nsatyabrat7 can you share some sample data along with expected output and a clear description of the problem. Maybe then I can help you.

Thanks

@nsatyabrat7 -

Try something like:

Measure = COUNTX(FILTER('Table'[all units usa] > 10),[dac])

or

Measure = CALCULATE(COUNT('Table'[dac]),FILTER('Table'[all units usa] > 10))

If that does not help, please first check if your issue is a common issue listed here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Before-You-Post-Read-This/ba-p/1116882

The most important parts are:
1. Sample data as text, use the table tool in the editing bar
2. Expected output from sample data
3. Explanation in words of how to get from 1. to 2.
