    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:

     

     

     

    Best Regards,
    Kelly

    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])

      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
