OK

i will try to explain this step by step

  • You select: Owner = Ann Johnson
  • Employee = Kim Keith

For above selection your IF statements does not contain true values as: OrgUser = KimKeith and there is no Kim Keith for this selection in Name field

therefore you get 0!

Hi,

it is quite simple

your sample returns zero for conditions you are selecting:

COUNT({<[Team Role]={'Originated Idea'},[Division]=,[Department]=,[Org Unit]=,[Business Area]=>} DISTINCT If([OrgUser]=[Name],Idea)) + SUM(0)

For selections you are saying OrgUser is not equal to Name, therefore you have 0.

So in theory there is nothing wrong with your expression.

Hi,

Thank you for the response. The condition says orguser equals to Name. The result for the selections should be 5 not 0. How can i write the set expression to achieve that result?

Thank you,
