measure with function like TRIMMEAN of excel

[DSchmndtk]

Hello I am looking for a code like the trimmean function in excel.
The previvous posts i checked didn't help me finding a solution.
Maybe someone can help me with an kind of sample code and what i have to replave inside of the code...

Hi @DSchmndtk ,
Here some steps that I want to share, you can check them if they suitable for your requirement.
Here is my test data:

Create a Rank column

Rank = RANKX('Table',[Value],,ASC)

Create a measure

Trimmed Mean = 
VAR _percentage = 0.3
VAR _startRank = FLOOR(COUNTROWS('Table')*_percentage/2+1,1)
VAR _endRank = COUNTROWS('Table')*(1-FLOOR(_percentage/2,0.1))
VAR _sum = 
CALCULATE(
    SUM('Table'[Value]),
    FILTER(
        'Table',
        'Table'[Rank] <=_endRank && 'Table'[Rank] >= _startRank
    )
)
VAR _count = COUNTROWS('Table')*(1-FLOOR(_percentage/2,0.1)*2)
RETURN
_sum/_count

Final output

In Power BI, you can replicate the TRIMMEAN function using DAX (Data Analysis Expressions). Below is a DAX formula to calculate the trimmean:

TrimMean =
VAR Data = SUMMARIZE('Table', 'Table'[Value])
VAR Percent = 0.2 -- Change this to the desired percentage
VAR Count = COUNTROWS(Data)
VAR TrimCount = INT(Count * Percent)
RETURN
AVERAGEX(
TOPN(Count - 2 * TrimCount, Data, 'Table'[Value], ASC),
'Table'[Value]
)

Here's what you need to do:

1. Replace 'Table' with the name of your table.
2. Replace 'Table'[Value] with the column that contains the values you want to calculate the trimmean for.
3. Change the Percent variable to the desired percentage.

Here's a step-by-step guide:

1. Open your Power BI Desktop.
2. In the "Modeling" tab, click on "New Measure".
3. Paste the DAX formula provided above and adjust it according to your data.

For example, if you have a table named Sales and a column named Amount, your DAX formula would look like this:

TrimMean =
VAR Data = SUMMARIZE('Sales', 'Sales'[Amount])
VAR Percent = 0.2 -- Change this to the desired percentage
VAR Count = COUNTROWS(Data)
VAR TrimCount = INT(Count * Percent)
RETURN
AVERAGEX(
TOPN(Count - 2 * TrimCount, Data, 'Sales'[Amount], ASC),
'Sales'[Amount]
)

This DAX formula creates a new measure named TrimMean that calculates the trimmean of the Amount column in the Sales table, removing 20% of the data from the top and bottom tails.

You can then use this TrimMean measure in your reports and visuals just like any other measure.
