Last 12 Months not affected by date filter

Hello, I'm trying to get a rolling 12 month average.  I need to first sum the month and then average the 12 months from there.  For example, the average for the table below should be $121,955,757.71.  Instead I keep getting $60,977,878.86 (the average of all the numbers together).  I can't seem to figure it out.  Thank you!

Hi @BA11501Banderso,

 

Please try this code:

Measurde =
VAR _s =
    DATE ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Date].[Year] ), SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Date].[MonthNo] ) - 11, 1 )
VAR _e =
    DATE ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Date].[Year] ), SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Date].[MonthNo] ) + 1, 1 ) - 1
RETURN
    AVERAGEX (
        TOPN (
            12,
            SUMMARIZE (
                FILTER ( ALL ( 'Table' ), [Date] >= _s && [Date] <= _e ),
                [Date],
                "sum", SUM ( 'Table'[Amount] )
            ),
            [Date], DESC
        ),
        [sum]
    )

Result:

@BA11501Banderso 

First calculate these two columns:

- Month = FORMAT('Table'[Date],"MMMM")

- Year = YEAR('Table'[Date])

Then, use this measure to obtain your result:

AVG =
VAR countmonth = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[Month]), ALLEXCEPT('Table', 'Table'[Year]))
RETURN CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[ Amount ]), ALLEXCEPT('Table', 'Table'[Year])) / countmonth

So I'm looking for a rolling average.  This seems to just populates the total number into each month.  I guess it would be better is I gave you more than 12 months of data...

@BA11501Banderso Sorry, a mistake in the measure, set Month with Year in the return, like this:

 

AVG =
VAR countmonth = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[Month]), ALLEXCEPT('Table', 'Table'[Year]))
RETURN CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[ Amount ]), ALLEXCEPT('Table', 'Table'[Month], 'Table'[Year])) / countmonth

That doesn't appear to be giving me what I'm looking for.  That appears to give me the total for the month divided by 12. 

 

BA11501Banderso_0-1651596542696.png

 

I'm looking to sum the months individually (multiple inputs into each month) and then take an average of the total of the prior 12 months.

@BA11501Banderso 

With this measure i achieve the correct result for 2021, but i didn't understand what it have to do with the new year (2022), can you explain?

 

In this row: 

1/1/2022      121,609,134.10            121,952,234.26

 

How to you calculate the expected value?

 

The measure:

Cumulative_Actual =
VAR countmonths = CALCULATE (
DISTINCTCOUNT( 'Table'[Month]),
filter( ALL ( 'Table'[Date]),
'Table'[Date] <= MAX( 'Table'[Date] ))
)
RETURN CALCULATE (
SUM ('Table'[ Amount ] ),
filter( ALL ( 'Table'[Date]),
'Table'[Date] <= MAX( 'Table'[Date] ))
) / countmonths
