    Hi CalvinL ,

     

    We can use the Power Query and create a calculate column to meet your requirement.

     

    1. In Power Query Editor, we can use Date only and Time only functions to create two columns.

     

     

    2. Then we can create a calculate columns in data view,

     

    Column = 
var time1 = TIME(0,0,0)
var time2 = TIME(12,0,0)
return
CALCULATE(AVERAGE('Table'[Value]),FILTER('Table',EARLIER('Table'[Date.1])='Table'[Date.1] && 'Table'[Time]>=time1&&'Table'[Time]<=time2))

     

     

     

    If it doesn’t meet your requirement, could you please show the exact expected result based on the table that we have shared?

    BTW, pbix as attached.

     

    Best regards,

Thanks for the reply. For the result, I want it to be displayed in a separate column, lets call it "Peak Values".  The reason I want it in a separate column is so that I can then see in a line chart that on this day, this was the peak value.

 

Is that possible? I've given it a try in DAX but no joy. I know in excel it's quite easy with a BETWEEN statement, but unsure about DAX.

HI CalvinL ,

 

You can try this measure.

 

AVG1 =
var _year = YEAR(MAX('Table'[Date]))
var _month = MONTH(MAX('Table'[Date]))
var _day = DAY(MAX('Table'[Date]))
var _filtertable = FILTER(ALL('Table') , Year('Table'[Date]) = _year && MONTH('Table'[Date]) = _month && DAY('Table'[Date]) = _day && HOUR('Table'[Date]) <= 12 && HOUR('Table'[Date]) >= 0)
var _countrows = COUNTROWS(_filtertable)
var _sum = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Value]),_filtertable)
RETURN
DIVIDE(_sum,_countrows)
