Hello Everyone,
I am having trouble calculating sum of Distinct Count. Basically, I would like to calculate Distinct count regarding a different column. Here is the example:
Term ID
Spring 15 1
Spring 15 2
Spring 15 1
Spring 16 1
Spring 16 1
Spring 16 3
Spring 17 4
Spring 17 1
My original formula is DISTINCTCOUNT(Table[ID]). But it gives a total number 4. However, I would like to calculate sum of distinct ID for every term. It should have,
-2 distinct count for Spring 15,
-2 distinct count for Spring 16
-2 distinct count for Spring 17.
So distinct count would be 6 instead of 4.
By the way, there is something to point out. I was eligible to get correct number with a complicated formula but my page should react when we filter with a slicer. When I have something like (="Spring 15"), it does not response when Spring 15 is unselected in slicer.
It is not as complicated as it is seen. To recap, distinct count should be calculated for every data in column "term".
Sorry for the long message. I hope I can solve my issue.
Solved! Go to Solution.
You could create a new column that concatenates Term and ID and then create a measure that does a DISTINCTCOUNT of that column. This measure should react appropriately to slicers and such. So:
Column
TermIDs =CONCATENATE([Term],[ID])
Measure
DistinctTermIDs = DISTINCTCOUNT([TermIDs])
I have a set of ids
1
2
3
1
1
2
4
5
5
and i want the id and its count
1 - 3 times
2 - 2 times
3 - 1 time
4 - 1 time
5 - 2 times
and i have written a measure for the same
Measure = CONCATENATE(DISTINCT(Activityx[Column1.AppId]), DISTINCTCOUNT(Activityx[Column1.AppId]))
but i am unable to get the expected result. How can i achive that?

Hello,
I would like to ask question as a continue of your answer, when we calculate a measure
DistinctTermIDs = DISTINCTCOUNT([TermIDs])
How to put this measure result in new column for every product (row).
Example, we have as a product name
Spring15
Spring15
Spring16
And create DISTINCTCOUNT measure that we can manually filter and for Spring 15 Total will return 2.
How to put this value 2 in the same table, near each item?
Result should be
ProductName No. (from measure)
Spring15 2
Spring15 2
Spring16 1
Thank you in advance
Thanks , this helped me.
So how would you filter out a distict value?
So in the example above how would you say return the distinct values = SPRING15
I am surprised how fast you replied.
Thank you so much!
