    Hi admin11 ,

    Try the following formula:

    avg = 
var _table = 
    FILTER(
        'Date',
        NOT(ISBLANK([AMOUNT]))
    )
var _Date = MAXX(_table,'Date'[Date])
var _First =  EOMONTH( _Date, -12 )
return 
    -DIVIDE(
        CALCULATE(
            [AMOUNT],
            FILTER(
                _table,
                'Date'[Date] > _First
            )
        ),
        12
)

    If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information or the expected result you expect. Let me know immediately, looking forward to your reply.

    Hi admin11 ,

    Try to modify the measure Amount to the following formula:

    AMOUNT = 
CALCULATE(
    SUM(GL[AMT])*-1,
    FILTER(
        GL,
        GL[1_EXP]="EXP"
    )
)

     

    Best Regards,
    Winniz

    Hi Paul,

    try this measure

    YTD Avg Expense = TOTALYTD(AVERAGE('GL'[AMT]),'Date'[Date])

    But the result is vastly different to your 42952.  How did you arrive at that value?

    I can't work out how you are recording expenses.  There are multiple columns in your GK table with the word EXP and another column with the Type E. Are these expenses?

    Regards

    Phil

        Hi admin11 ,

        Try the following formula:

        avg = 
-AVERAGEX(
  FILTER(
    'Table',
    'Table'[YrMth Sort] >= EOMONTH( LASTDATE( ALL( 'Table'[YrMth Sort] ) ), -12 )
  ),
  [Amount]
)

        If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information or the expected result you expect. Let me know immediately, looking forward to your reply.
