Matrix Average Column

I would like to add a Monthly Average as a column at the end of this table and I was wondering if anyone could help please?

 

The columns are Calender Months and the values are the Count of Claim Refs

    Hi spandy34 ,

     

    Matrix table is not support to add a column by custom. The only way to add a column is add a new row under Calender Months, which value is "average".

    Then measure:

    Measure =
    var _average = calculate(AVERAGE('Table'[values]),REMOVEFILTERS('Months column'))
    return
    IF(SELECTEDVALUE('Months column'[month])="average",_average,SUM('Table'[values]))
    Result:

     

    The same problem has been solved in this post you can refer.

    Hi spandy34 
    as a workaround, you can calculate the averages for each fiscal year in a measure and place them in a card visual next to the respective rows.
    You can calculate the average Count of Claim Refs per fiscal year by using Calculate() function.  For Example:

    Average Count of Claim Refs for 2021-2022 = 
Calculate(Average([Claim Refs]), 'Table'[Fiscal Year] = "2021-2022")

    Similarly for fiscal years 2020-2021 and 2019-2020.

    Regards

      Hi, chenwu. I've used your method to apply to my case but it didn't work. Here is what I write. 

      Measure =
      var _average = calculate(AVERAGE('2023 RM Raw Data'[Amount]),REMOVEFILTERS('Month column'))
      return
      IF(SELECTEDVALUE('Month column'[Display Value])="Average",_average,SUM('2023 RM Raw Data'[Amount]))

      Why it didn't show the average amount？Is it because my data is bit complex?

      Thank you so much. If you are free, please see my own post problem: Re: Add an average column - Microsoft Fabric Community
