Average a sum over specific date range

Hello,

 

I've got a measure which sums up three columns. If I'm looking at a single month then for example it brings back a value of 4000. 

 

What I want to do is if the user selects a date range of more than one month then show the average of that time period as well as being able to show the single month value if a single month is selected.

 

EG March = 3000

Feb = 2000

Jan = 4000

 

Currently when I select last 3 calendar months it'll show 9,000 however I want it to show 3,000 which is the average over 3 months but then revert back to showing 4,000 if just January is selected.

 

Can this be done in a single column or will I have to have it on a seperate one. Sorry it's not a very good explaination!

 

Thanks,

 

Mark

    Anonymous , Simple avg should do?

    Average(Table[Value])

    In case data need to aggregate before
    AverageX(Summarize(Table,Table[Month],"_1",sum(Table[Value])),[_1])
