Create new measure to get Average
Hi, I have a table which contains Date, CustomerName, Price, month, & weekday.
I have created measure using the DAX, Day 1 = CALCULATE(sum(Actual[Price]),FILTER('Actual','Actual'[Day]=1))
similarly for all days. If i select 3 months at a time i am getting the total values, as shown in the fig
My query is I need to get an average value's if i select 2 or 3 months in the slicer. Anyone has an idea how to solve this ?
Hi siva3012,
Create an extra measure like:
Count month selected = DISTINCTCOUNT(Actual[Month])
Modify the measure for Day 1 as below:
Day 1 = CALCULATE(sum(Actual[Price]),FILTER('Actual','Actual'[Day]=1))/[Count month selected]Result.
Best regards,

v-yulgu-msft : Hi, There is an small eror in the solution. If we select 2 Months data Jan & Feb in slicer. Jan has 31 days and Feb has 28 days. The average is been calaculated wrongly for Jan 29, 30 & 31.
Do you have any idea over this ?

I have solved this issue,
Day 1 = CALCULATE(sum(Actual[Price]),FILTER('Actual','Actual'[Day]=1))/(CALCULATE([Count month selected],Actual[Day]=1))
