Hi @srk_powerbi ,

 

Create a measure like this:

Measure = var cur_cus = MAX('Table'[Customer])
return
CALCULATE(AVERAGE('Table'[sales]),FILTER(ALLEXCEPT('Table','Table'[Year]),'Table'[Customer]<>cur_cus))

@Greg_Deckler  thanks.  the calculated column you provided above gives me the sum. Now  how can i calculate avg?

Also, can i do the same by creating a Measure inst?ead  of calculated column?

@srk_powerbi If you add an ID column in Power Query then this should be easier and more certain. Otherwise you can use variables or EARLIER to identify rows other than the current row. See my article on Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) which uses EARLIER: http://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Mean-Time-Between-Failure-MTBF-and-Power-BI/ba-p/3395....
The basic pattern is:
Column = 
  VAR __Current = [Value]
  VAR __PreviousDate = MAXX(FILTER('Table','Table'[Date] < EARLIER('Table'[Date])),[Date])

  VAR __Previous = MAXX(FILTER('Table',[Date]=__PreviousDate),[Value])
RETURN
  __Current - __Previous

 

In your case, you could do something like: 

 

Column = SUMX(FILTER('Table',[Year]=EARLIER([Year]) && [Customer]<>EARLIER([Customer])),[ProductPurchased)
