Dynamic calculated table or visualization based on two selected dates
- 8 years ago
Hi Anonymous,
Create a calendar table which is unrelated to fact data table. Like this:
Date Tab = CALENDAR(DATE(2018,1,1),DATE(2018,1,8))
New measures:
value1 = VAR maxdate = CALCULATE ( MAX ( TestData[Date] ), ALL ( TestData[Date] ) ) VAR mindate1 = MIN ( 'Date Tab'[Date] ) VAR mindate2 = CALCULATE ( MAX ( TestData[Date] ), FILTER ( ALL ( TestData ), TestData[Date] < maxdate ) ) VAR cal1 = CALCULATE ( SUM ( TestData[Value] ), FILTER ( TestData, TestData[Date] = mindate1 ) ) VAR cal2 = CALCULATE ( SUM ( TestData[Value] ), FILTER ( TestData, TestData[Date] = mindate2 ) ) RETURN IF ( ISFILTERED ( 'Date Tab'[Date] ), cal1, cal2 ) value2 = VAR maxdate1 = CALCULATE ( MAX ( TestData[Date] ), ALL ( TestData[Date] ) ) VAR maxdate2 = MAX ( 'Date Tab'[Date] ) VAR cal1 = CALCULATE ( SUM ( TestData[Value] ), FILTER ( TestData, TestData[Date] = maxdate1 ) ) VAR cal2 = CALCULATE ( SUM ( TestData[Value] ), FILTER ( TestData, TestData[Date] = maxdate2 ) ) RETURN IF ( ISFILTERED ( 'Date Tab'[Date] ), cal2, cal1 ) diff = [value2]-[value1] Average Diff = AVERAGEX(VALUES(TestData[Hour]),[diff])The highlighted Matrix (put [Hours] into Columns section of Matrix, put [Average Diff] into values section) is your desired output. The last column is the default total column by Matrix, it shows the average of values across all hours, but its column name cannot be changed. If you don't want it, you can use a Table visual, as shown in above image, at the bottom the highlighted Matrix.

Amazing, thank you so much!
Ideally, I would have a region column, then the 24 columns for hours with values for each hour within each region, and finally a column for averaging the rows at the end. Would it be best to go for a matrix setup with a category like that? The regions are also included in the original data tables, with values for each hour of course.
Region | Hour 1 | Hour 2 | Hour 3 | Hour 4 .... | Average
Region 1
Region 2
Region 3
