Counting Instances of contact over a selectable date range, help!

$

I'm looking for a bit of help.  I'm new to using powerbi and come from a background on excel so as you can imagine, I'm having a little trouble adjusting.

 

I want to be able to select a date range and have a visual show me how often customers had to call me.

something like:-

 

1 call     =  "this many"

2 calls   =  "this many"

3 calls   =  "this many"

4 calls   =  "this many"

 

What I have so far is a table with all my call data with an identifier and date/time for each customer contact and a seperate table distinctly listing my identifiers.  I want to create a measure on the second table that will tell me how many times each of the distinct identifiers appears in the first table.  Idea being that when I select a date range on my visual, the measure on table 2 will adjust to count within that.  I feel as though I'm missing something very important though.

 

I've tried to do the following:-

 

 Measure = COUNTROWS( FILTER ('table1' , 'table1' [identifier] = 'table2' [identifier]))

 

This gives me the following error:

 

"A single value for column 'Account Number (Account)' in table 'Unique Accounts Table' cannot be determined. This can happen when a measure formula refers to a column that contains many values without specifying an aggregation such as min, max, count, or sum to get a single result."

 

I get a red underline under 'table2'[identifier] as well.

 

Anyone able to point me in the right direction with this one?

 

Thanks
