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
Solved! Go to Solution.
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.
