Create Table from Visual Composed of Attribute and Measure

Afternoon,

 

I am trying to calculate the median/average value for these counts per quarter and then use that median or average to create some other measures. So for instance I would like to create a calculated table like the visual table below, having the quarter and the value. How would I go about doing that?   

   

Need Help

    Hi powersc,

     

    Based on your description, your requirement is to create a calculate column to achieve average value in every quarter, right? You can use DAX formula as below:

    Avg = CALCULATE(AVERAGE(Table1[Value]), FILTER(Table1, Table1[Date].[Quarter] = EARLIER(Table1[Date].[Quarter])))

     

     

    You can refer to PBIX file here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/88z0hvojp6wvlah/Create%20Table%20from%20Visual%20Composed%20of%20Attribute%20and%20Measure.pbix?dl=0.

     

    Best Regards,

      Hi v-yuta-msft,

       

      That is somewhat right, I am actually trying to look at the sum of decription columns and find the average over the past quarters. Currently I do not have a value column but that was easy enough to create using you example as a guild. Now to get the average I need to calculate the previous number of quarters that came before the current one. How can I figure that out? 

       

      Thanks

        Nevermind I was able to figure it out using a built in function. 

         

        DATEDIFF(MIN('test system'[captured_datetime]), MAX('test system'[captured_datetime]),QUARTER)

         

        Thanks.
