Computing Score Based on Normal Distribution

Hi Gurus,

 

I need your help in doing this.  

 

I have a metric to create, based on a resource versatility/agility.  

Say a left table is my datasource, where it has the Group, Resource Name, Month and Volume details.  And in blue, is the score based on the criteria given at the right table.

Goal is that the table at the right side (At Least Column) should be generated/updated automatically based on the data source selections.

 

I was able to create this in Excel using the formulas:

=NORMINV(Volume *0.01,AVERAGE(Volume),STDEV(Volume)

 

Is there a way to do it in Power BI?

 

Thanks in Advance!

Also if find DAX cannot do it they you can always use R as tranformation or visual
