Dax Command for Rolling 3 Week Average

brockry1 — Wed, 12 Mar 2025 15:25:39 GMT

I'm looking to calculate a rolling 3 week average on my GSV for the last 3 weeks but need it to lag a week. For the screen shot I would want an average for weeks 10,9 and 8 and when 11 is completed and 12 starts showing I would want 11, 10 and 9 and so on each time a new week starts. In my data table I brought in the year, period and week. I did not bring in date but if needed I can.

Distribution Type	Period	Week	GSV
Vetsource	P02	5	645
Vetsource	P02	6	635
Vetsource	P02	7	490
Vetsource	P02	8	718
Vetsource	P03	9	689
Vetsource	P03	10	622
Vetsource	P03	11	98

Hi,

I am not sure how your semantic model looks like, but I tried to create a sample pbix file like below.

Please check the below picture and the attached pbix file.

One of ways to create a measure for finding out recent three-complete-weeks rolling average is using WINDOW DAX function in the measure.

WINDOW function (DAX) - DAX | Microsoft Learn

GSV measure: = SUM( data[gsv] )

WINDOW function (DAX) - DAX | Microsoft Learn

complete 3 weeks rolling average: = VAR _today = TODAY () VAR _currentweekenddate = MAXX ( FILTER ( 'calendar', 'calendar'[date] = _today ), 'calendar'[End of Week] ) VAR _completeweek = _today = _currentweekenddate RETURN IF ( _completeweek, AVERAGEX ( WINDOW ( 1, ABS, 3, ABS, FILTER ( ALL ( 'calendar'[End of Week] ), 'calendar'[End of Week] <= _currentweekenddate ), ORDERBY ( 'calendar'[End of Week], DESC ) ), [GSV measure:] ), AVERAGEX ( WINDOW ( 1, ABS, 3, ABS, FILTER ( ALL ( 'calendar'[End of Week] ), 'calendar'[End of Week] < _currentweekenddate ), ORDERBY ( 'calendar'[End of Week], DESC ) ), [GSV measure:] ) )

So I do have a Calendar Table:

And have a many to one relationship on date to date for my Fact Table to Calendar.

So the end of week in the sample isn't working.

Hi,

I still need to understand how your calendar dimension table is structured, for instance, what column is sorted by what column.

Please share your sample pbix file's link, and then, I can try to look into it.

Thank you.

Hi brockry1 please check this

Rolling_3_Week_Avg =
VAR CurrentWeek = MAX('Sales'[Sales Week])
VAR LastCompletedWeek = CurrentWeek - 1

VAR AvailableWeeks =
TOPN(3,
FILTER(ALL('Sales'), 'Sales'[Sales Week] <= LastCompletedWeek),
'Sales'[Sales Week], DESC
)

VAR AvgGSV =
AVERAGEX(AvailableWeeks, 'Sales'[GSV])

RETURN
AvgGSV
