Creating a column average based on two other columns

Hello,

 

I need some assistance in finding a solution to this problem. I want to create a column that would display the average of [Value] based on [ID] if the [Location] column has common values. Please see example below. Thank you kindly

Hi @sammy3 ,

 

Create a measure as below:

 

 

Measure = CALCULATE(AVERAGE('Table'[value]),FILTER(ALL('Table'),'Table'[ID]=MAX('Table'[ID])&&'Table'[Location]=MAX('Table'[Location])))

 

 

Or you could create a calculated column as below if needed :

 

 

Column = CALCULATE(AVERAGE('Table'[value]),FILTER('Table','Table'[ID]=EARLIER('Table'[ID])&&'Table'[Location]=EARLIER('Table'[Location])))

 

 

And you will see:

This works perfectly but is then impacted by my page filters.  If I add the column in the Power Query Filter I assume the filters added later in the desktop will not change the value but I'm struggling to translate to DAX

@sammy3 , Try like

calculate(Average(Table[value]), allexpect(Table, Table[ID], Table[Location]))

or

calculate(Average(Table[value]), filter(allselected(Table), Table[ID] =max(Table[ID]) && Table[Location] = max(Table[Location])))

or

averageX(summarize(Table, Table[ID], Table[Location],"_1",Average(Table[value])),[_1])
