Distinct Count doesn't match to Excel file raw data

I created Pivot in Excel and selected Distinct Count, however , the measure I created in PBI doesn't match to distinct count in Excel. Can you help me to fix my measure?

Excel:

Measure:  

 

 

Var _Calc= CALCULATETABLE(
SUMMARIZE('COVID_INDV_PERIODS',[SERVICE_DESC],
"_COUNT", DISTINCTCOUNTNOBLANK('COVID_INDV_PERIODS'[ID])),
FILTER('COVID_INDV_PERIODS', [GP_NB]=_gpnb
&& [SERVICE_DESC]="Confirmed"
&& ([PAID_DATE] >= _min_Pdate && [PAID_DATE] <= _max_Pdate)
&& ([SERVICE_DATE] >= _min_SVCdate && [SERVICE_DATE] <= _max_SVCdate) ))

Return
SUMX(DISTINCT(_TempTable),[_COUNT])

 

 

 

 

Result in PBI which is wrong:

Hi @NilR ,

 

Please provide a sample data and I will try to rebuild the measure in Power BI Desktop.

@NilR Guessing but could be a casing problem. DAX ignores case so Greg and greg are 1 distinct value.

DAX is easy, CALCULATE makes DAX hard...

I checked, It's all Numbers ! Can I rewrite the measure in diff way?
