@laurent_rio , if you want other filters to work

 

Group Average Duration/Staff = CALCULATE([Duration],filter(allselected(Course_Completion_Listing),Course_Completion_Listing[BU] =max(Course_Completion_Listing[BU]) ))

Hi it seems my DAX not work if i have filter. My filter is Business unit , 
using the formula 

Group Average Duration/Staff = CALCULATE([Duration],ALLEXCEPT(Course_Completion_Listing,Course_Completion_Listing[BU]))

will lock all the business unit to show eventhough filter applied 

Any idea ? 

@laurent_rio , if you want other filters to work

 

Group Average Duration/Staff = CALCULATE([Duration],filter(allselected(Course_Completion_Listing),Course_Completion_Listing[BU] =max(Course_Completion_Listing[BU]) ))

Hi @amitchandak 

Now the questions if the filter have all selection, it seems this DAX
Group Average Duration/Staff = CALCULATE([Duration],filter(allselected(Course_Completion_Listing),Course_Completion_Listing[BU] =max(Course_Completion_Listing[BU]) ))

Not give expected result

Here for example if i choose 1 BU, the result is OK

But if i choose all BU or multiple BU Selection, i expect the group will show same total average hour/staff

Can you help to modify the DAX so it work for all or multiple BU Selection ?

@laurent_rio , Allexpect will allow that filter to pass, means job Grade filter iwll pass

 

Try like

Group Average Duration/Staff = CALCULATE([Average Duration/Staff],ALL('Job Grade'[Job Grade]))

 

or

 

Group Average Duration/Staff = CALCULATE([Average Duration/Staff],ALLselected ('Job Grade'[Job Grade]))

 

 

Group Average Duration/Staff = CALCULATE([Average Duration/Staff],removefilters('Job Grade'[Job Grade]))
