showing zero instead of blank in pivot table or bar chart

Hello All, 

 

I have created the below pivot table :

I need to replace the blank values by 0. The Segment column and the Brand column both come from the same Dim Table. 

The mesure is a count of of a column in the fact table.  Some of the brands don't have a relationship with all the segments. 

 

I need it to show as 0 because when I transform the pivot table in a bar chart, all the segment still need to show on the bar chart and not disapear when it is blank. For example, if I select Automet on a filter, then the bar chart will only show the bus&coach segment. Instead, I still need the bar chart to show me the other segment with no values like below:

I have tried  IF(ISBLANK(count(column)), 0, count(column))

 

How could I fix it ? 

 

Thanks

It works better when rows and columns are coming from separate dimension/table

Please provide sample data.

Previous posters already hinted at this, but if the "+ 0" doesn't work, then the issue is with your dimension table not containing the Segment/Brand combinations you want to show zeros for. This can't be solved with a dax measure.
So either make sure the dimension table contains these combinations or otherwise create an additional dimension table and link that to the fact.

@sjoerdvn thanks for the help. They do contain the combinations. I think I will just create a separte dimensions.

Did you try it inside your transformation table with the folowing DAX statement?

 

modified_column =
IF (
    LEN ( column[Name] ) = 0, 0,column[Name]
)

So fact table would be as below:

Column(to count)BrandID
aaa1
bbbb2
zzz3
ee4
rrz5
ete6
zr7
er8

 

The dim table would be as below:

segmentBrandBrandID
Bus&CoachVOLVO1
COMMERCIALVOLVO2
HEAVYVOLVO3
MEDIUMVOLVO4
Bus&CoachVOLKSWAGEN5
COMMERCIALVOLKSWAGEN6
LIGHTVOLKSWAGEN7
Bus&CoachVDL8
