Measure returning incorrect value

Hi all,

 

I have a strange issue, could someone please  help me with that.

I have a grid as in the picture below

1.jpg

 

I need to distinct count of employees with "Overreported in column "Test3" (negative value in column 'project gap")

 

I have a measure "Overreported Ppl" =  CALCULATE(Distinctcount ('Table_Name'[Employee]), FILTER( 'Table_Name', 'Table_Name[Project Gap]<0))

However it returns me employees with positive numbers in 'project gap' column and who are marked as  'Underreported' in test3 column.

I cannot figure this out how come I get something like that? Smiley Frustrated

 

Thank you

@tananich,

 

You may try the following measure.

Measure =
COUNTROWS (
    FILTER (
        VALUES ( 'Table_Name'[Employee] ),
        CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table_Name'[Project Gap] ) < 0 )
    )
)

Hi  ,

 

you this DAX , this will count emplyee where pr_gap has -ve value.

 



Overreported People = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(valueTest[Employee]),
FILTER(valueTest,

)
)
