count and average

I look for the response to questions I'm not sure how to ask. I constantly update new information. There are multiple rows in each day. I can count the number of rows. However, I prefer to average across weeks or months. to use this table in power bi. I can configure the specified date to count using the example. But I'm unable to select the average. Please let me know. Should the table have a calculation column added? How do I select and set it up?

    Hi,

    I am not entirely sure I understood your question, but you can get the average of the row totals like this:

    measure 39 = IF(isblank(SELECTEDVALUE('Table (25)'[Date])), //check if row is total
       
        DIVIDE(counta('Table (25)'[Detail]),COUNTROWS(VALUES('Table (25)'[Date]))), //calculate Average for total row
        counta('Table (25)'[Detail])) //count values


    Example:

     

    Count for months is 5 and 4 respectively and their average is 4.5

    I would solve this in dax instead of PQ since your goal seems to be to have a dynamic calculation depending if week or month is selected for filtering.


    I hope this post helps to solve your issue and if it does consider accepting it as a solution and giving the post a thumbs up!
