Problems calculating 12 month rolling average
Hello. Havent done this before.
Trying to calculate the 12 month rolling average for a rate (Measure). It doesn't seem to be working and is just returning the same value as the current month's value (not the average of the last 12 months).
This is the DAX in the calculation
Would be very greatful if someone could point out where im going wrong! Let me know if you need any more info.
Hi ggargan ,
Please try below steps:
1. below is my test table
Table:
2. create a measure with below dax formula
Measure = VAR cur_date = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Date] ) VAR tmp = CALCULATETABLE ( VALUES ( 'Table'[Sales] ), FILTER ( ALL ( 'Table' ), 'Table'[Date] IN DATESINPERIOD ( 'Table'[Date], cur_date, -12, MONTH ) ) ) RETURN AVERAGEX ( tmp, [Sales] )3. add a table visual with measure and column
Please refer the attached .pbix file.

Create a Calendar Table with calculated column formulas for Year, Month name and Month number. Sort the Month name by the Month number. Create a relationship (Many to One and Single) from the Date column of the Data Table to the Date column of the Calendar Table. To your Table visual, drag Year and Month name from the Calendar Table. Assuming 5. TRIR is a measure that you hav already written ,write this measure:
12 months rolling average = calculate([5. TRIR],datesbetween(Calendar[Date],edate(min(calendar[date)),-11),max(calendar[date])))
Hope this helps.
