Hi there
I have just started my Power BI journey. I am trying to calculate the average time a specific maschine needed to complete a specifict task in order to compare it with the planned data.
In the screen shot below you can see my sample data, which includes:
- 5 different Maschine types (A, B C, D an E)
- 3 different Tasks (Nr 1, 2 and 3)
- Time needed for completing the task
Since there are many more maschine types and tasks in my real data set, I am looking for a way to build a table or a matrix, where I do not have to manually write the reffered machine ( = "Maschine A") or task, into the function. Any ideas how to do that?
Thanks in advance!

@JM94 use the following measure
Avg by Maschine and task =
CALCULATE (
AVERAGE ( tbl[Time] ),
ALLEXCEPT ( tbl, tbl[Maschine], tbl[Task Nr.] )
)
