Hi guys,
I have a line chart (pic below) where the data is chosen to be the median (in the drop down option in the Y-axis), and I need to be able to reference the values for Market and Client separately. The client data I believe is just one row, so is not really a median value, but the Market data will have many rows to calculate the medians.
My issue is that I would need to find the median for every year individually if I used a measure to calculate the median values for the Market - which is inefficient and new data gets added regularly. This median is different than if I just apply a =MEDIAN() to the data. But I can see the values when I go on table view, and I know I can export this tabulated data into a CSV, but again I would like to avoid this and keep it all calculated within the report.
So, I would like to reference the data table from the graph that it shows (such as table below), so that I can use this in other calculations/visuals.
Renewal Year | Branch | Median of FOT Rate |
2016 | Market | 3.30% |
2016 | Client | 2.55% |
2017 | Market | 3.58% |
2017 | Client | 2.51% |
2018 | Market | 6.00% |
2018 | Client | 4.10% |
2019 | Market | 5.94% |
2019 | Client | 4.14% |
2020 | Market | 7.47% |
2020 | Client | 4.70% |
2021 | Market | 7.63% |
2021 | Client | 4.80% |
2022 | Market | 8.20% |
2022 | Client | 4.58% |
2023 | Market | 9.16% |
2023 | Client | 5.70% |
Thanks!
@Anonymous , Based on what I got
a New column =
MEDIANX(filter(Table, [Renewal Year] = earlier([Renewal Year]) ), [Median of FOT Rate])
a new measure =
MEDIANX(filter(allselected(Table), [Renewal Year] = max([Renewal Year]) ), [Median of FOT Rate])
@amitchandak thank you for your reply. I only have [FOT Rate] and the 'Median of FOT Rate' only comes within the table data drop down options, as I have shown in picture below. How would this affect your code you have written above?
Thanks
