Breaking down values in a line chart

Hi

 

I'm trying to make a line chart with 4 lines, but with using only 3 variables.

 

The first line is simple, as the value is the average of a variable and the axis is date.

The remaining three lines are more complicated. As in the first line, I want it to be the average of a variable. But this variable has to be broken down by three different values, as it measures satisfaction on 3 different areas. So they are asked how they have checked-in and get 3 different options. Later, people are asked how satisfied they are with the process of checking in. I want the average line for each possible answer to be shown in the chart.

 

Does anyone have an idea that might work?

 

Thanks in advance!

Hi @v-ljerr-msft

 

I think I have found a solution, although it may not be the optimal one. But it works. I've made three conditional columns. So "If Check-in Method = Self service  Then ValueFromMeanCheckIn" This gives me the values that I'm looking for.

Hi @kjartank,

 

Base on my understanding, you should be able to create different measures with the three variables correspondingly, then show all the measures on the line chart in this scenario.

 

Could you post your table structures with some sample data and your expected result, so that we can further assist on it? Smiley Happy

Hi.

 

I'm attaching two pictures. One of the chart I want to produce and one of the data structure. I simply want to break it down to the average mean of each chech-in method.

Hi,

 

could you show us some example data. In that way it is hard to understand.

 

My first thought is just to make the Averages of those 3 (part) Measures and calculate them strictly mathematically.

 

=(AVG(Values1) + AVG(Values2) + AVG(Values3))/3
