Hello,
I am trying to create a control chart based on a set of rules. My mean and standard deviation should change based on set of mentioned rules. Standard rules to calculate the control chart are as follows
1. to calculate mean/ average the minimum data points are 5.
2. To calculate standard deviation the minimum data points are 15.
The required rules for the visualization
1. If seven consecutive points appear above or below the MEAN, the MEAN for the past seven points is recalculated. This is where we would look at the seven points ahead from the first point where it changed.
2. If seven consecutive points are moving either up or down the MEAN is recalculated on the past seven points. This again is where we would look at the seven points ahead from the first point where it changed.
3. If fifteen consecutive points are within +/- 1.0 standard deviation of the MEAN, the standard deviation, UCL and LCL are recalculated. Beginning to the system change point (back to the start of the 15 data points that triggered the recalc). Newly calculated means and standard deviations are used for rule evaluation on the next data points
Sample data is as follows:

Hi @dhanekula1996,
You should probably create measures to do all of these calculations, then add the measures to a visual.
Power BI does have a standard deviation function:

I have tried this for Average calculation but this measure gives me a constant Average value. I need to dynamically vary the average based on the rules mentioned.
This is your chance to engage directly with the engineering team behind Fabric and Power BI. Share your experiences and shape the future.
