Average of other measure - is this possible?

Dear Memebrs, 

sicne couple of days I'm struggling with PBI on how to calucalte the average of another measure? 

 

Case as follows:

I do have a table with following meaures:

  1. Sales per rep
  2. Rep Count (distinct count)
  3. Business Count (distinct count - how many business given rep supports)
  4. Average of business supported by a rep

Table layoutTable layout

 

Measure are calculated as follows:

 

OUOURepRep

The only thing I want to achieve is somehow re-calcualte avrage on Manager level to show average of all averages OR sum of all distinct counts on OU level divided by sum of all reps - desired view below:

            'DB'[Sales Rep Number],
            'DB'[OU Hierarchy],
            "Count OU", COUNT ( 'DB'[OU Hierarchy] ),
            "Sales Rep", SUM ( 'DB'[USD] )
        ),

Hi @ponczula 

You can refer to the following solution.

Sample data 

vxinruzhumsft_0-1700718787881.png

Create a measure

Measure =
VAR a =
    SUMMARIZE (
        ALLSELECTED ( 'Table' ),
        [Manager],
        [Column1],
        "Average", AVERAGE ( 'Table'[Column3] )
    )
RETURN
    IF (
        ISINSCOPE ( 'Table'[Column1] ),
        CALCULATE ( AVERAGE ( 'Table'[Column3] ) ),
        AVERAGEX ( FILTER ( a, [Manager] IN VALUES ( 'Table'[Manager] ) ), [Average] )
    )

Output

You cannot measure a measure.  Instead, implement your business logic in a single measure.
