Averaging by Hour

Hi,

 

I have multiple stores where the staff schedule is for every 5 minutes. I need to work out the median staff quantity per hour for each store for each day for each staff type. 🙂

 

Is this possible? I have been hunting the solution for a couple of days.

Just put Store and Hour in a table. Don't summarize Hour. Now put Quantity in the table and choose the "Median" aggregation. Like Page 1 of the attached file.
