DataEditor Count and then Filter in counted Variable

Hi There,

 

I am trying to do an anlysis and prepare the data in the data editor.

My problem simplified:

There are several tasks and I am counting the tasks for each department. Now there several Sub Tasks for this department. For example all departments need to following steps:

identify requirement

satisfy requirements

document solutions

 

Now I want to count the total tasks of Department X. So I will do:

count ( if ( @Department = 'X')) as Tasks_X

The next step would be to unroll the tasks for each departmend. So i  am doing the following right now: 

count if (@Department = 'X' and @Task = 'identify requirements') as Tasks_X_identify.

My real world example is a bit more complex because i have to apply much more filters.

 

The question now is. As I already filtered for Tasks_X. Can i do something like:

IF Tasks_X=TRUE()  AND @TASK = 'identify requirements' as Tasks_X_identify.

 

I hope it is somehow understandable...

 

Thanks a lot !

You would need to do an additional load and either keep it separate or join it back

LOAD 

Department,

Count(Task) as TaskCount

IF( Task = 'identify requirements',Count(Distinct Task)) as "identify requirements count"

...

Resident Table

Group by Department;
