DAX: Sum unique values across columns

Hello,
How do I sum unique values of "Yes" across my columns in DAX?
It should look like this with [Total Yes] being my calculated column:
Name
January
February
March
Total Yes
Bob
Yes
Yes
No
2
Jim
No
Yes
No
1
Mark
No
No
Yes

How to get count of unique values of column B for each unique value of column A in Excel 2010?

I have an excel sheet containing 72,000 rows in Excel 2010, column A is "site name", column B is category. I want a result that shows number of sites for each category.
Column A Column B
site 1 Category 1
Site 1 Category 1
Site 2 Category 1
site 3 Category 2
site 3 Category 2
site 4 Category 2
site 5 Category 2
I want this result:
Category 1 2
Category 2 3
I tried some formula in a 3rd column and created a pivot table on that column, but it did not give me the result i want.
Any one has an idea ? what is the easiest way to achieve this?
Appreciate any pointer

I tried both formula referenced in these two post (I think they are a little simpler than the one above):

They both worked! and I got the result for my 72,000 rows!
Thanks for your help!

Count the number of unique values in column

Hi
I have a large numbers file (thousands of rows) with data for different dates. I need to calculate the number of unique (distinct) dates are in the spreadsheet.
Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks,
Bruce

bpj,
Let's say your date is in column B for this example and your first data row is Row 2. In another column you can enter into row 2: =IF(COUNTIF($B$2:B2, B)=1, 1, "") Summing the new column content will yield the number if unique dates.
As badunit observes, this will result in sluggish document. If the number of possible dates is small compared to the number of rows of data, it would be better to make a table of possible dates and count the number of occurrences of each of those dates in the data, a COUNTIF function on the frequency data for the date range will give you the number of unique dates, possible much more efficiently.

Dragging one cell value(copy) across columns or across rows in ALV layout

Hi friends,
In bps layouts, data is displayed in ALV grid as interface. At plng folder level, can i incorporate excel feature like dragging one cell value across columns or across rows? Simply if user enter one value in cell of ALV grid, that should be copied automatically across rows/columns while dragging?
Second question, even i chose in layout builder excel as interface, that layout showed in plng folder as ALV grid layout. Why it happens so. I read documentation in UPSPM of that particular plng folder, it tells same thing(even if u choose excel, it will show in ALV only). So how can i get excel interface in plng folder?
Regards,
Kumar

requested property is not possible at ALV layout level. Provided text document load facility to user. So user can directly load excel to plng folder.
Issue resolved.

How to count unique values based on specific criteria

Hello,
I need to count the number of unique values in column A but only if the text in column I is a specific word - how do I do this?

Let's say the values are in A1:A10 and they are numeric, and the text is in I1:I10.
As an array formula, confirmed with Ctrl+Shift+Enter:
=SUM(IF(I1:I10="word",1/COUNTIFS(A1:A10,A1:A10,I1:I10,"word")))
where "word" is the specific word you're looking for.

Need to test if a column have unique values or not

Hi all,
in ETL process I need to check if some cols have unique values or not using sql or plsql.
Suppose we need to load a big file data with external table initially and then test if values
on one or more columns have unique values in order to proceed with ETL process.
What is the faster test I can execute to verify that a column have unique values or not?
It's better for the ETL performance, use:
a. techniques regard constraints like described on Ask tom forum
"ENABLE NOVALIDATE validating existing data"
(Ask Tom &quot;ENABLE NOVALIDATE validating existing da...&quot;)
b. "simply" query on the data?
like this:
select count(count(*)) distinct_count,
         sum(count(*)) total_count,
         sum(case when count(*) = 1 then 1 else null end) non_distinct_groups,
         sum(case when count(*) > 1 then 1 else null end) distinct_groups
from hr.employees a
group by A.JOB_ID
c. use analytics function?
d. use some feature directly on external table?

This column cannot enforce unique values because this list or document library may contain items that are not viewable by all users.

The above error occurs when I place unique constraint on a column in a custom list. This error only occurs because the custom list has been configured to only allow creaters to view and edit their own list items.
I just can't see why that should prevent SP from placing a unique value constraint though.
One easy workaround would be to place the unique constraint on the SQL Server table that represents this list. However, in a hosted environment, it is not always possible to gain access to the backend server. What is more, I am uncomfortable with this
approach as it may break other parts of SP 2010.
Is there any other approach?

Hi,
If SharePoint were to enforce uniqueness on a column in a list where users are only allowed to see and edit list items that have created, then you could have a scenario where -
a. user1 tries to add a new item to the list which violates the uniqueness constraint
b. SharePoint reports an error
c. user1 gets to know that there is another item containing the same value in this list
d. this violates the security settings that you configured (each user should be allowed to only see the items that they have created). Now if you change the permissions settings to allow users to SEE all items, but only
edit items that they have created, this error disappears (obviously).
Now getting to the workaround you mentioned (creating a unique constraint on the SQL Server table). This is not going to be possible for numerous reasons -
a. Modifying (or for that matter, even performing SELECT operations on) the SQL Server tables is an unsupported operation and it will definetely break other things in SharePoint, not
to mention that you will lose all support options from Microsoft. However if you don't care about this, then it will still not be technically possible because...
1. SharePoint does not create a new SQL Server table for every list/library.
2. If you did get around to enforcing a unique constraint in the one single table that SharePoint uses for all lists, then you will be enforcing this constraint on each and every list in all the sites and in all the site
collections that are assigned to that content database.

How do I count the unique value pairs in two columns of a table?

I have a table (Table 2) that is populated with data from an imported .csv file. On table 1 I need to count the unique value pairs in two columns of Table 2.
Here's what I have:
Date                                        Person
7/10/2011                         A
7/12/2011                         W
7/12/2011                         X
7/12/2011                         X
7/12/2011                         X
7/12/2011                         Z
7/14/2011                         Z
7/15/2011                 X
7/16/2011                         Z
I'm focusing on person "X" and can easily count how many days that person shows up but what I want is to see on how many unique days that person shows up.
Here's the result I'm looking for (Person "X" shows up on 2 different days - 3 times on 7/12/2011 and once on 7/15/2011):
X                    2
I can't seem to find a function that allows me to do that. I also am not allowed to modify Table 2 so that leaves me to come up with a solution on Table 1.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Hi John,
Not being allowed to modify Table 2 is a minor inconvenience. Just copy (using a formula) the necessary two columns onto Table 1.
Yellow columns may be hidden. The procedure progresses from left to right. All formulas are entered into row 2 then filled down that column to the end of the table. The table must be as long as the list in column A of Table 2.
A2: =Table 2::A
Fill right to column B.
Fill both columns down as far as needed.
I've used actual Date and Time values in column A, formatted to show only the Date part, but the technique will work with text in these cells, provided all cells representing the same 'date' have exactly the same content.
C2: =A&B
This concatenates the contents of each row of columns A and B into a single text string.
D2: =COUNTIF($C$2:C2,C)
This counts the number of occurrences of the Date&Name string on the current row from the first regular cell in column C (C2) to the current cell.
E2: =IF(COUNTIF($B$2:B2,B)=1,MAX($E$1:E1)+1,"")
This constructs the index of first occurrences of each name, in the order they first occur. The index is used by LOOKUP in column F.
F2: =IF(ROW()-1>MAX(E),"",LOOKUP(ROW()-1,$E,$B))
This uses the index value created in E as a search-for value to extract a single copy of the names in column B. The result is a list of all distinct names in the list. Note that spelling differences will be counted as distinct names.The IF statement stops the listing when the last distinct name is extracted.
G2: =IF(LEN(F)>0,COUNTIFS($B,"="&F,$D,"=1"),"")
This counts the number of 'first occurrences of distinct Date & Name strings for each name on the list (ie. the number of distinct dates on which each name appears in the original list).
All of the functions used are described, with at least one example for each, in the iWork formulas and Functions User Guide. You can download the guide, and the Numbers '09 User Guide, via the Help menu in numbers.

Extracting unique values from (non-category) columns for chart

Hello:
I've created a worksheet to keep inventory of my Intellivision games. It has the following columns:
Publisher
Class
Network
Title
Quantity
(misc...)
The "Class" represents whether the game is "complete in box" or "loose cartridge." The "Network" represents the general genre or game cateogory. The quantity is how much I have of each.
I have set the first three columns as categories: Publisher, Class, and Network. I also created a bar chart based on the Title and Quantity columns, to show how many I have of each.
The problem I have is that, although it looks real cool and helps me keep the games organized, since a title can appear in more than one "Class" (e.g., I can have one in box, and two loose), the chart includes duplicates, and they are not grouped together.
Is there a way that I can create a graph (or a secondary table) that exctracts only the UNIQUE values from a column that may contain duplicates?
Note that I don't want to put the "Title" column in a category. I want to group by the three major categories and list the games on each.
-dZ.

From the Numbers Help Menu, download the Numbers User Guide. Read the first three or four chapters to get a feel for the app. It's well written and won't take long to read that much.
Then use the Table of Contents and the Search tool to get additional specific directions.
First, delete all unneeded Rows and Columns from your data table. If you have patches of data in a larger table, Cut the patches and Paste them to a blank Sheet area to create separate dedicated tables for your various needs. These small special purpose tables are like Named Ranges in Excel. Name them in the Sheets Pane.
This is how Numbers was intended to be used. The User Guide will describe how to reference cells in one table from expressions in another table. If you use the point and click method of creating references from within the equation editor it won't matter a bit that the tables are separate.
Come back here for specific help on anything you are having trouble with.

Count of unique values in 7 columns

Hey there…
I have a Lookup table with 8 columns
ID = unique ID
U = Sunday,
M = Monday
T = Tues
W = Weds
R = Thur
F = Fri
S = Sat
Each of the ‘day’ columns can have a value between 1 and 1150, looks like this
ID U M T W R F S
1 15 15 16 15 17 345 17
What I am trying to find is a count of the deviation of each row… or how many of the days have different values
So for the above example
ID U M T W R F S COUNT
1 15 15 16 15 17 345 17 4
As there are 4 unique values in the week..
15,16,17,345
Any ideas on how that could be done in oracle? Stumped!

Yep, pre-11g:
CREATE TABLE temp (id INTEGER, col_1 INTEGER, col_2 INTEGER, col_3 INTEGER, col_4 INTEGER, col_5 INTEGER, col_6 INTEGER, col_7 INTEGER);
INSERT INTO temp VALUES (1000, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7);
INSERT INTO temp VALUES (1001, 7, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7);
INSERT INTO temp VALUES (1002, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1);
SELECT * FROM temp

SELECT id, col_1 col FROM temp UNION
SELECT id, col_2 FROM temp UNION
SELECT id, col_3 FROM temp UNION
SELECT id, col_4 FROM temp UNION
SELECT id, col_5 FROM temp UNION
SELECT id, col_6 FROM temp UNION
SELECT id, col_7 FROM temp
GROUP by id
ORDER BY 1;

Need PlSQL code to find out the column/combination of columns from a given table which will be unique values

Given a table with some columns and data associated with that. Need to find out a column or a combination of some columns, so that the values or combination of values will be unique in the table.
The table and number of columns and the columns will be dynamic.
Can you please help me with the solution?

No key is defined in the table.
Suppose a table contains 20 columns then I need the unique combinations of all columns.

Need to find out which column(single column and combination if columns) have unique values. Like, First check if Emp_No is unique then check Emp_No+Emp_Name is unique, then check if Emp_No+Emp_Name+Passport_No is unique, then check Emp_No+Emp_Name+Passport_No+Emp_Designation is unique.
Then again try with the combination of Emp_No+Passport_No and so on. In this way I need to find out all the combinations having unique values.
As Paul says, that will be a waste of time, as it will taken a lot of processing for all the possibilities, checking all the data each time to determine which combinations of columns provide uniqueness. What happens if someone inserts or deletes some data whilst your doing it?
You'd be quicker to manually look at the tables, and make an educated guess and then test for uniqueness with a quick query on that guess.

Expense reporting, get values from column and return only unique values somewhere else

i would like check a column for the values it contains (expense categorizations) and then return a list of only the unique values somewhere else in a vertical list. So "gasoline" may be listed 12 times in the reference list but in my result listing i would expect it to only show up once. If there is a way to do this then I would also like to know how empty cells are handled.
I will then be applying a SUMIF to the returned list to get totals for all the unique categorization a have specified.
Thank you for your time.

Deleting the first row made your $F$2 become $F$1.
Explaining how a formula works is not so easy to do. I'll try, but the best way is to read up on the formulas and piece it all together. There's nothing fancy or tricky going on here.
The "active ingredient" in the formula is this piece: OFFSET('Table 1-2'::$F$1,SMALL('Table 1-2'::G,ROW()−1)−1,0)
ROW() returns the row number of the cell that has the formula in it. It is an easy way to get an ever increasing number for the formula. The other way would be to have another column with 1,2,3,4, etc. in it. So, ROW() will return the number 1 if the formula is in row 1, will return the number 2 in row 2, etc.
SMALL(range, n) returns the nth smallest number from the given range of numbers. So, for the formula in row 2, SMALL('Table 1-2'::G, ROW()−1) becomes SMALL('Table 1-2'::G, 1) which will return the 1st smallest number from the G column of Table 1-2. In the 3rd row it would return the 2nd smallest number. Etc. And remember that those numbers it is returning are the row numbers of your unique values in Table 1-2.
OFFSET(base, row offset, column offset) is a way of referencing a cell. For instance, OFFSET($F$1,1,0) would be one row down from cell F1. OFFSET($F$1,2,3) would be two rows down and three columns to the right of cell F1. The SMALL formula has given you the row number for a unique value in your Table 1-2. To reference the correct row, the row offset from F1 needs to be one less than that number (an offset of 0 = cell F1. An offset of 1 = cell F2, etc.). The column offset is zero.
