Average Inventory

Hi,

 

I am trying to calculate GMROI per item and am having trouble getting the average inventory cost.

 

My data is something like this:

DateStoreItemSOHValue
30 May 2022A110
30 May 2022B120
6 June 2022A110
6 June 2022B120
13 June 2022A110
13 June 2022B120

 

If I try 

AvgSOHValue = AVERAGE(ItemSales[SOHValue])
I get 15 because it divides total SOH (90) by the number of records (6).

 

Instead I want the 90 divided by the number of dates (3), so I'm getting an average SOH overall instead of per store.

 

Can anyone please help?

 

Thanks,
Michael

Create below measure and put it in card

 

Avg = SUM(ItemSales[SOHValue]) / DISTINCTCOUNT(ItemSales[Date])
 
Hope it will work for you.
