Dissecting Multi-pick fields

Hi,

My data contains more than one item for one field.  ie.

 

CR IDPotential Impact
1Scope, Resources
2Schedule,Scope,Resources
3Resources,Cost,Schedule
4Resources

 

What i would like to do is understand how many times each potential impact choice was selected.  ie. how many time was Resources was selected.

I would then like to display that in some sort of visual chart in a report.

There are up to 7 choices a user can select from and the field is optional so field can be blank also.

 

Any help appreciated!!

@Amy79 , In power query use split by delimiters with row option you will get additional rows for each of  the CR ID.

 

You can use this model to count words
