Plot two lines with count of date on a reference axis

[Anonymous]

Hi,

my columns in a table look like this:

start	end
09.03.2021	null
09.03.2021	15.03.2021
09.03.2021	15.03.2021
15.03.2021	15.03.2021
15.03.2021	19.03.2021
16.03.2021	23.03.2021

the start and end columns have a relationship to a dim_time table in the model. 

Now i want to plot the count per date on a referenced time axis. 

E.g. for the 15.03.2021 the should be: 2 for count of start and 3 for count of end.

How do I achieve this?

Hi, @Anonymous 

According to your description and sample data, I think you can try to create measures to achieve this, you can try my steps:

1. I created a calendar table for the slicer:

Date = CALENDARAUTO()

2. Then I create two measures:

count of start =

COUNTX(FILTER(ALL('Table'),[start]=MAX('Date'[Date])),[start])

count of end =

COUNTX(FILTER(ALL('Table'),[end]=MAX('Date'[Date])),[end])

3. Then create a slicer to place ‘Date’[Date] and two card charts to place the measures:

And you can get what you want.

If this result is not what you want, you can post some sample data(without sensitive data) and your expected result.

Well, that is no help at all. I want a plot on a shared time axis and not a filter with a count.

@Anonymous , you need to use userelationship

The assumed start is active

Start Count = CALCULATE(COUNTrows(Table]),USERELATIONSHIP(Table[Start Date],'Date'[Date]) )

end count = CALCULATE(COUNTrows(Table]),USERELATIONSHIP(Table[End Date],'Date'[Date]),not(ISBLANK(Table[End Date])))

Thank you. What kind of formular is that? Where should I put this formular? Would appreciate if you start one step earlier. 🙂
