Need help with the average calculated measure

‎07-18-2019 12:58 AM

Hi all,

 

I have data in PowerBI with three columns as shown below in column A, B and C.

I am trying to get the average value by objective as expected in column D.

I've tried using this formula:

Avg by object =
AVERAGEX(KEEPFILTERS(VALUES('My Table'[Objective])), CALCULATE(SUM('My Table'[Value])))
 
but it didn't work. Please help. Thank you.

@Anonymous try following measure

 

Avg Object = CALCULATE( AVERAGE( Query1[Amount] ), ALLEXCEPT( Query1, Query1[Object] )  )

@parry2k By the way, I also would like the calculated measure to be dynamically changed according to the month filter for each objective. For example, if I filter Jan19 until May 19 then the calculated measure should be the average of the value of the five months, not the average value of six months as of now. How could I achieve this?
