I have been trying to count the values in a column. I have tried the belwo
Count Kit Bags = DISTINCTCOUNT(PPECheckinOut[ScanKitBagTag])
the result should be 16 but it reuturns 17 (counting the duplicate value).
can anyone help as to why or how to get it to count only values that are unique and not balnk.
Thanks
Solved! Go to Solution.
And this
Measure 2 = SUMX ( ALL ( PPECheckInOut[ScanKitBag ], PPECheckInOut[ Crabs] ), CALCULATE ( VALUES ( PPECheckInOut[ Crabs] ) ) )
Sample data would be immensely helpful in this case. A couple things, perhaps try to Trim your data on import as well as make sure everything has the same case. To exclude blanks, wrap your aggregation in a CALCULATE clause and filter out the blanks.
HI Smoupre
thanks fory your reply. The Data in column looks like this.
ScanKitbagTag
Bag 1
Bag 2
Bag 3
Bag 4
Bag 5
Bag 6
Bag 7
Bag 8
Bag 9
Bag 10
Bag 11
Bag 12
Bag 13
Bag 14
Bag 15
Bag 16
Bag 15
As you can see Bag 15 is here twice. as the data is collated it will always contain duplication. i wish only to count the amount of uniquie values. in this instance it should be 16.
OK, I used this Enter Data query:
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WckpMVzBUitWBsIzgLGM4ywTOMoWzzOAsczjLAs6yhLMMDRBMhC2GCGsMEfYYIiwyRNhkaIYiGgsA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [ScanKitbagTag = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"ScanKitbagTag", type text}}) in #"Changed Type"
And this measure:
Measure 12 = DISTINCTCOUNT(ScanKitBagTag[ScanKitbagTag])
And got 16.
Thanks

i am new to BI so relay dont know what to do with the Enter Data Query. could you give me a steer on where this is placed to help with the soultion.
You can do 2 things. Either create a new blank query and use Advanced Editor to paste in my code. Or, click on Enter Data in the ribbon and copy and paste the data you posted including the column header.
Count Kit Bags = CALCULATE ( DISTINCTCOUNT ( PPECheckinOut[ScanKitbagTag] ), FILTER ( ALL ( PPECheckinOut[ScanKitbagTag] ), PPECheckinOut[ScanKitbagTag] <> BLANK () ) )
HI Zubair
that did the trick thanks.
it has however shown one more issue. in one of the column i need to count there are quantities.
ScanKitBag Crabs
12 2
13 4
14 2
15 2
16 4
16 4
In this instance i want to sum [Crabs] but exclude the duplicate bag numbers (16 counted twice.) So the out come of this instance would be 14 and not 18.
Try this
Measure = SUMX ( SUMMARIZE ( PPECheckInOut, PPECheckInOut[ScanKitBag ], PPECheckInOut[ Crabs] ), CALCULATE ( VALUES ( PPECheckInOut[ Crabs] ) ) )
And this
Measure 2 = SUMX ( ALL ( PPECheckInOut[ScanKitBag ], PPECheckInOut[ Crabs] ), CALCULATE ( VALUES ( PPECheckInOut[ Crabs] ) ) )
Thanks for this. One little thing is how do i make this a whole number without decimal points?
Select the MEASURE from FIELDS>>> Go to Modelling Tab>>>Formatting and select whole number
