Average Line on Clustered Bar Chart

Hi Guys,

 

I wanted to apply average lines on my chart, but, after enabling display values, it shows a different average vs the measure I created.

I have a clustered bar chart with Supplier Category and Suplier Subcategory on the x-axis and a measure AVERAGE() on the values.

 

I have checked the filters, and done some research as well. It seems that the average line shows the arithmetic mean (correct me if I am wrong).

 

Is there a way I can display the correct Average Value on the Average Line?

Hi @pgo ,

I have tested in my environment but it seems work fine that the value in average line and median line are the same as the value in the card. Both of them have also applied same filters.

Have you set the field in Y-axis in line chart as the same as in the card? The field count represent what and what is the data category of it? Usually, if the field is a sigma value, it should show the same value both in line chart and cards. Could you please consider provide a dummy .pbix file for further discussion?

Thanks for the update. As a workaround, I applied Constant Line instead of Average line.
