count occurences by month

I have this measure created to calculate the occurences of a value across the dataset. I have a date column in the dataset as well. If i wanted the measure to count occurences by MONTH, how would i edit this? Or is there a better way to do that? 

 

Occurences = COUNTX(FILTER('Table',EARLIER('Table'[Column])='Table'[Column]),'Table'[Column])

Hi @thampton 

 

Try something like this:

Column = 

CALCULATE(

    COUNT('Table'[Client_ID]),

    FILTER('Table',

    'Table'[Month]=EARLIER('Table'[Month])),

    FILTER('Table',

        'Table'[Client_ID]=EARLIER('Table'[Client_ID])))

@thampton , like

Occurences = COUNTX(FILTER('Table',month(EARLIER('Table'[Date]))=month('Table'[Column])),'Table'[Column])

 

Add column if needed


Occurences = COUNTX(FILTER('Table',EARLIER('Table'[Column])='Table'[Column] && month(EARLIER('Table'[Date]))=month('Table'[Column])),'Table'[Column])

@thampton - I would create a new calculated column like:

 

Month = MONTH([Date])

 

Then you can put Month in a visual and just use a standard count aggregation on any other column.
