Calculate AVERAGE based on grouped SUM - with filter

Hello,

 

We have data - example below - where we'd like to calculate the Average based on the SUM of given grouped values.

For example - using data below - for Burger King marketing - we have 3 values: 120, 220 and 85.  The average of these is 141.66.  This is not the answer we want.  Want to group by Project (Company Name, Group A and Group B) and SUM AMOUNT.  Also want to have filter work on date. column.  So, answer should be 212.5 (120+220=340 and 85) - take average of those.

Tried creating a table which calculates this dynamically but it doesn't update when the date filter changes.  Any help appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Dan

SUMMARIZE(FILTER(TestData, TestData[Amount]>= [EarliestDate] && TestData[Amount]<= [LatestDate]),
    TestData[CompanyName],
    TestData[GroupA],
    TestData[GroupB],
    TestData[Project],
    "Total Amount Billed", SUM(TestData[Amount]))

This measure gets the 212.5 result and can filter by date.

 

Avg =
AVERAGEX(
    ADDCOLUMNS(
        SUMMARIZE(
            Example,
            Example[CompanyName],
            Example[GroupA],
            Example[GroupB],
            Example[Project]
        ),
        "@Amount", CALCULATE(SUM(Example[Amount]))
    ),
    [@Amount]
)

Thanks @PaulOlding!  Appreciate your help with this.  That worked for everything except for the total - that it is not displaying the average of everything being calcualted.  Thoughts on how to make that work?

 

Thanks,

Dan
