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

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]))
		)
)
