Consolidating data with same dates; calculating standard deviation for process control chart
Hi, here is a sample data set for the type of problem that I have.
| Date | No Observations |
| 1/1/2024 | 3 |
| 1/1/2024 | 5 |
| 1/8/2024 | 2 |
| 1/8/2024 | 3 |
| 1/15/2024 | 4 |
| 1/15/2024 | 6 |
I would rather group by date, then calculate my standard deviation in DAX.
| Date | No Observations |
| 1/1/2024 | 8 |
| 1/8/2024 | 5 |
| 1/15/2024 | 10 |
Using Excel Std Dev = 2.52
How can I group dates and then find standard deviation in DAX? I would like weekly observations on my Process Control Chart.
Hi,
I am not sure how your semantic model looks like, but I tried to create a sample pbix file like below.
If you are analyzing by week, I suggest having Calendar Dimension table something like below.
Please check the below picture and the attached pbix file.
STDEVX.S function (DAX) - DAX | Microsoft Learn
Observation total: = SUM( Data[No Observations] )Standard deviation: = STDEVX.S( ALL('Calendar'[Start of Week]), [Observation total:])
