I have a COUNTBLANK function in my Power BI to show the columns where someone has forgotten to put in a number of details but it counts where there is an empty entry in the name column. For some reason this isn't pulling through any numbers. Presumably because other columns next to it are blank too.
What is the best way to highlight when data is missing in an entry so it can be fixed as quick as possible?

@Anonymous - I would use Clean and Trim operations in Power Query to get rid of any stray characters. You could also try:
Count Blanks =
COUNTROWS(FILTER(ALL('Table'),ISBLANK([Column]) || [Column]="" || LEN([Column])<3))
Also, why are you not flagging rows with missing data versus columns?
@Anonymous , is it blank or have some space.
countrows(filter(table,isblank(Table[Column]) || Table[Column]= "" || Table[Column] = " " ))
or try to use trim
@amitchandak Annoying that function still returns (Blank) meaning there is nothing to count, however, I can see there is a space in my data column still.
