First Column represents some numbers and the last column I am trying to do average. I am using and excel sheet. I want to filter the values out by Column 2 and the date column. The data is for 2021 and 2022

Hi! Thanks for the responses but I am still not able to get through getting the correct results

@ryan_mayu Hey Ryan! I was able to solve the issue! Thanks for all the help. I first created a measure and then plugged that in a column to calculate and divide

could you pls provide the sample data?

Hi,

Share the download link of your PBI file and show the expected result.  Also, do you want a calculated column or a measure?

Hi,

You should write a measure (not a calculated column).  To get further help, share some data and show the expected result.
