Hi,
I try to do 3 weeks MA and 'Ave per week' for the below data. Note 'Ave per week' is for info only.
| Week | NScheduled | Ave per week |
| 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 2 | 6 | 3.5 |
| 2 | 1 | 3.5 |
| 3 | 4 | 2.666666667 |
| 3 | 3 | 2.666666667 |
| 3 | 1 | 2.666666667 |
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @tomgag
In your original table, create a calculated column
Ave per week =
DIVIDE (
CALCULATE ( SUM ( Table1[NScheduled] ), ALLEXCEPT ( Table1, Table1[Week] ) ),
CALCULATE ( COUNT ( Table1[Week] ), ALLEXCEPT ( Table1, Table1[Week] ) )
)
Then create a new table from Table1
Table2 = SUMMARIZE(ALL(Table1),[Week],Table1[Ave per week])
In this table, create calculated columns
moving sum =
CALCULATE (
SUM ( 'Table2'[Ave per week] ),
FILTER (
ALL ( 'Table2' ),
[Week] < EARLIER ( 'Table2'[Week] )
&& [Week]
>= EARLIER ( 'Table2'[Week] ) - 3
)
)
MA3 = [moving sum]/3
Best Regards

Hi,
What does your actual base data look like? Is there is a Date column in there? If no, do you atleast have a year and Month column? Along with the Date column (if it is there), will there be a week column as well?
Share the actual data and show the expected result.

Ave per week as a column would look like:
Ave per week =
VAR __table = FILTER(ALL('Table'),[Week]=EARLIER([Week]))
RETURN AVERAGEX(__table,[NScheduled])
@tomgag specify what is MA & Share the sample date with the clear brief explanation what your looking

MA is moving average. is it will be in this case:
Week 4 MA = (Week 1 value 1 + Week 2 value 3.5 + Week 3 value 2.67 ) / 3
A moving average has this general format (from the Rolling Average Quick Measure)
Value rolling average =
IF(
ISFILTERED('Table2'[Date]),
ERROR("Time intelligence quick measures can only be grouped or filtered by the Power BI-provided date hierarchy or primary date column."),
VAR __LAST_DATE = ENDOFMONTH('Table2'[Date].[Date])
VAR __DATE_PERIOD =
DATESBETWEEN(
'Table2'[Date].[Date],
STARTOFMONTH(DATEADD(__LAST_DATE, -3, MONTH)),
ENDOFMONTH(DATEADD(__LAST_DATE, 1, MONTH))
)
RETURN
AVERAGEX(
CALCULATETABLE(
SUMMARIZE(
VALUES('Table2'),
'Table2'[Date].[Year],
'Table2'[Date].[QuarterNo],
'Table2'[Date].[Quarter],
'Table2'[Date].[MonthNo],
'Table2'[Date].[Month]
),
__DATE_PERIOD
),
CALCULATE(SUM('Table2'[Value]), ALL('Table2'[Date].[Day]))
)
)
