rolling past 3 month average

Hi,

 

I am trying to do a rolling past 3 month average so i can create a goal for my ordering volume but i need this to be able to be drilled up or down at the day, month,year level within a visual. 

 

Any thoughts?

 

Thanks!

So i tried using this but this is at the month level I need it at the day level. 

Better Rolling Average =
    VAR __EndDate = MAX('KPI Scorecard'[DTE])
    VAR __3MonthsAgo = EOMONTH(__EndDate, -3)
    VAR __StartDate = DATE(YEAR(__3MonthsAgo), MONTH(__3MonthsAgo), 1)
    VAR __Table =
        SUMMARIZE(
            FILTER(ALL('KPI Scorecard'),[DTE]>=__StartDate && [DTE]<=__EndDate),
            'Calendar Table'[Month],
            "__Value",([Domestic Lines Shipped])
        )
RETURN
    AVERAGEX(__Table,[__Value])
 
 
I also have this that does it at the day level but the total still is an average. Is there a way i can take this measure so when i drill up or down on a visual that it has the average by day but then sums those averages for the entire month and then quarter, year etc.
29 = var maxdate = MAX('Calendar Table'[Date])
var s = CALCULATE('KPI Scorecard'[Domestic Lines Shipped],
DATESINPERIOD('Calendar Table'[Date], maxdate,-90, day),
ALL('Calendar Table'[Date]))
var e = s/90
return e*DISTINCTCOUNT('Calendar Table'[Weekday number])

@Bryanna That's a different issue. First, please vote for this idea: https://ideas.powerbi.com/ideas/idea/?ideaid=082203f1-594f-4ba7-ac87-bb91096c742e

This looks like a measure totals problem. Very common. See my post about it here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/DAX-Commands-and-Tips/Dealing-with-Measure-Totals/td-p/63376
