Hi there,
I have data value for each date 2019-2024, and I want to show monthly average and % change vs the average from same month in 2019 (as a base year). I have a date column (date format) and a year column (number format). I am using the following formula:
Average for each month: This shows the average for whole of 2019 year , not the specific month in 2019 ?
Solved! Go to Solution.
lbendlin , thanks for your concern about this case. I tried to create a sample data myself based on the user's requirement and implemented the result. Please check if there is anything that can be improved. Here is my solution:
Hi @dp_75 ,
I created some data:
Here are the steps you can follow:
1. Create measure.
Calc 2019 Avg =
AVERAGEX(
FILTER(ALL('Table'),'Table'[Year]=2019&&'Table'[Month]=MAX('Table'[Month])),[Value])
Avg Value vs 2019 avg =
DIVIDE(
AVERAGEX('Table',[Value]),[Calc 2019 Avg])-1
2. Result:
Best Regards,
Liu Yang

many thanks - that solution works.
I also found this similar DAX expression works:
Please provide sample data that covers your issue or question completely, in a usable format (not as a screenshot).

Thanks Ibendlin - i think we've got the answer here. I will add a sample file next time as you suggest - much easier to deal with.
