DAX averages in a matrix

[ReginaP]

Hello,
I have been working on a Power BI report that calculates weighted averages across business locations and location groups in a matrix. The location group and location columns are placed in the row section. While the measure I’m currently using accurately calculates the location averages, the location group averages are incorrect.

The following measure returns the correct location averages:
DAX Setup Days = CALCULATE( AVERAGE('CGM'[DeliveryDays]), KEEPFILTERS('CGM'[Deliverydate] >= DATE(2025, 3, 1)), KEEPFILTERS('CGM'[Deliverydate] <= DATE(2026, 2, 28)) )

The averages and number of deliveries for each location are as follows:
- Location 1: Average = 36, Deliveries = 1
- Location 2: Average = 17.03, Deliveries = 34
- Location 3: Average = 16.50, Deliveries = 14
- Location 4: Average = 17.86, Deliveries = 29

The correct average for the location group is 17.49, which I verified in an Excel file. There was also an additional location with a zero average included in the Excel. However, my measure returned an average of 16.95 for the location group.

I would appreciate any help you can provide to resolve this issue.

Hi @ReginaP ,

as @samratpbi asked, please provide data sample (in a usable format, not an image) and images of the issue + snapsho of the data model.

IN any case, the issue seems due to the granularity of your iternations, we need to fix that in the DAX expression

If this helped, please consider giving kudos and mark as a solution

Hi, can you please provide some sample data and what calculation you are trying to achieve? Also I can see there is hard coded date in your measure? Is it expected? may be you can make it dynamic.

Thanks
