Incorrect average using DAX

Hi All,

I have a requirement to show the avergae of data for different protocols. Please find sample date below:

POSPOS_1-1700084304885.png

 

Issue: When one protocol is selected, then the values for same statuses should be aggregated, but they are getting showing as average as I have selected average for no. of days.

POSPOS_2-1700084370977.png


Expected output is 6+19=25 but it is showing as average 25/2=12.50.

POSPOS_3-1700084477840.png


The values should be aggregated for same protocols that has same statuses and values should show as average for different protocols.

Overall:

POSPOS_4-1700086091878.png

When all the protocols are selected, the result should be  (4+6+19+1)/3=10 but it shows as 7.50


Could someone please sugest on how to achieve this using DAX.
Attaching sample pbix file here.

Thank you,

Poojitha

@POSPOS Try this:

Measure = 
  VAR __Protocols = COUNTROWS(DISTINCT('Table'[Protocol]))
  VAR __Sum = SUM('Table'[No. of days])
  VAR __Result = DIVIDE(__Sum, __Protocols)
RETURN
  __Result

Hi,

Write these measures

D = SUM('Table (2)'[No. of days])
Measure = AVERAGEX(VALUES('Table (2)'[Protocol]),[D])

Drag the second one to the visual.

Hope this helps.
