DISTINCT AND DISTINCT COUNT Bugs on DATEs

Why Distinct count days, DistinctCount counts Months?

 

This measure counts Months but only for one selected year

 

SelectedMonthsCount =
SWITCH(
TRUE(),
ISFILTERED(_Date[Date].[Month]), DISTINCTCOUNT(_Date[Date].[Month]),
DISTINCTCOUNT(_Date[Date].[Month])
)
 

This measure counts Days but for any selected years

 

SelectedDaysCount =
SWITCH(
TRUE(),
ISFILTERED(_Date[Date].[Month]), COUNT(_Date[Date].[Month]),
COUNT(_Date[Date].[Month])
)
 
 
How to count Selected Months For any selected Years?

@Analitika Hi,

 

You just need to create a new column :

Month = MONTH('Date'[Date]) 
instead of using Date[Date].[Month],
then you can use DISTINCTCOUNT() for it.
