Average

Hello, I want to calculate an average of a column after modifying it with a multiplication.


This means that I want to calculate the average of:

CA N with discount = [CA N]-[Discount 1]-[Discount 2]

 

For your information, here are the previous steps which:

Discount 1 = SUM(Account[CA])*0.35

Discount 2 = [Discount 1]*0.1

CA N with discount = [CA N]-[Discount 1]-[Discount 2]

 

Can you help me?

 

THANKS!

 

Gregory

try declare var with this mensure [CA N]-[Discount 1]-[Discount 2] and return average var,

or change your mensure to a custom column, and use this column in average.
