I am building a report on 2 objects with a parent child (MD) relationship. How can i get the count of unique parents when i get the report filtered by some child objects field criteria. There might be more than 1 child record after applying the condition. How can i get a distinct/unique record count of the parent?

In a Summary report of Master with Child, applying a cross filter should let you filter on child records (further filtering using a subfilter on child records), and grouped by Parent (say Name) should give you unique count of Parent Records ? – techtrekker Feb 14 at 11:50

Use the Power of One, as mentioned by Salesforce and discussed in this answer.
