Rolling average without date table

Hi,

I have a table with sales and I want to be able to plot the rolloing average in a chart. I now have a DAX measure for average last 3 years but only as a number seen from today and I can't use that for a chart with time on the x-axis. 

 

What I use for non dynamic average:

Average last 3 years =

    AVERAGEX(

        FILTER(

            'table1',

            'table1'[id] > MAX('table1'[id]) -6 &&

            'table1'[id] <= MAX('table1'[id])

        ), 'table1'[sales]

    )

 

My table (table1):

JohannesM_0-1666857750715.png

What I need so that I can plot in chart:

Thanks in advance!

Hi @JohannesM ,

Pls use the below dax to create a new column:

Average last 3 years = IF(table1[year]-MIN(table1[year])>=2,

   FORMAT( AVERAGEX(

        FILTER(

            'table1',

            'table1'[id] > EARLIER('table1'[id]) -6 &&

            'table1'[id] <= EARLIER('table1'[id])

        ), 'table1'[sales]

    ),".0"),BLANK())

Output result:
