Getting an average for the year based on Quarterly figures

Hi, how can I get the average number of clients seen per quarter based on the total seen in the fiscal year?

 

I have a COUNT measure called Client_ID

And a new column for the Fiscal_Quarter

 

How can I show that the fiscal year average is 4.25 based on the below: 

Q1 = 4

Q2 = 2

Q3 = 6

Q4 = 5

 

Table for reference:

Client_IDDate
101/04/2024
201/04/2024
301/04/2024
401/07/2024
501/07/2024
601/10/2024
701/10/2024
801/10/2024
901/10/2024
1001/10/2024
1101/10/2024
1201/01/2025
1301/01/2025
1401/01/2025
1501/01/2025
1601/01/2025

 

Thanks

Hi @RichOB 

 

Assuming that each date in your sample data is either the start or end of a fiscal quarter, try this:

average =
AVERAGEX (
    SUMMARIZECOLUMNS ( Client[Date], "@count", COUNTROWS ( Client ) ),
    [@count]
)

@RichOB 

Avg Clients per Quarter = 
Var _all=CALCULATE(
[Client_ID],
ALL('YourTable'[Fiscal_Quarter])
)

Var _count=
DISTINCTCOUNT('YourTable'[Fiscal_Quarter])

return _all/_count

This will give you the average number of clients seen per quarter for the fiscal year, showing 4.25 as expected based on your provided data.

💌 If this helped, a Kudos 👍 or Solution mark would be great! 🎉
