    Hi Mark MarkCBB

     

    Please try this MEASURE

     

    Measure =
VAR SecondLastDate =
    MINX (
        TOPN (
            2,
            CALCULATETABLE (
                VALUES ( TableName[DATE] ),
                ALLEXCEPT ( TableName, TableName[STORE] )
            ),
            TableName[DATE], DESC
        ),
        TableName[DATE]
    )
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        [TotalAverageScore],
        FILTER (
            ALLEXCEPT ( TableName, TableName[STORE] ),
            TableName[DATE] = SecondLastDate
        )
    )

Zubair_Muhammad, Thank you so much for your help, I have learnt something new. 

Quick question, would there be any performance difference between the 2 approaches?

Hi MarkCBB

 

I think there shouldn't be any performance difference.
