Hi,

 

Thank you for you reply. Unfortunately that leads to the situation where every Week Ending column gives the same average and it basically seems like it isnt doing the cumulative bit:

I'd have expected that to work if [RespDateDestination] is the column you are using for the date column headers in your visual. If it's not, then whatever dimension you are using there should be in ALLSELECTED instead.

 

I suppose you can approach it from the other side by adding back in the context you do want, though this isn't quite convenient if you want to use a different dimension for your row headers.

 

A2H_Avg_Year_To_Date =
CALCULATE (
    AVERAGE ( Assignments_Detail[A2H_Secs] ),
    VALUES ( Assignments_Detail[Category] ),
    FILTER (
        ALLSELECTED ( Assignments_Detail ),
        Assignments_Detail[RespDateDestination]
            <= MAX ( Assignments_Detail[RespDateDestination] )
    )
)
