Hi All,
I'm in my first week with PowerBI and need some help.
I'm working with data at minutely intervals comes from many sensors and trying to
determine maximum/minimum values for a selected date(s). The data looks like below:
Original data
Date_time Sensor1 Sensor 2 ...
01/01/2017T12:00:00+10:00 28.1 18.7
01/01/2017T12:00:01+10:00 25.7 15.6
01/01/2017T12:00:02+10:00 25.6 18.5
Then I pivoted it in Power BI to
Date_time Sensor Measure
01/01/2017T12:00:00+10:00 Sensor1 28.1
01/01/2017T12:00:00+10:00 Sensor2 18.7
01/01/2017T12:00:01+10:00 Sensor1 25.7
01/01/2017T12:00:01+10:00 Sensor2 15.6
01/01/2017T12:00:02+10:00 Sensor1 25.6
01/01/2017T12:00:02+10:00 Sensor2 18.5
Then I grouped them, using group function in Power BI, into groups,
let's say Sensor1 and Sensor2 together for the above data. I managed to
create a graph out of average between those two sensors however when
I used Card to determine maximum/minimum value for a date(s) that I selected,
I got the maximum/minimum of individual sensor not the maximum/minimum of
average of the two sensors. For the above data, I got 28.1 but I wanted to get 23.4
for 1/01/2017, which is max of average between Sensor1 and Sensor2 (28.1+18.7)/2.
Any advice how I can achieve this (maximum or minimum)? This should be filtered to
date(s) selelected by users.
Thanks in advance for any help.
