I need help writing a DAX for a single KPI for Average Monthly Units. Average, AverageA, AverageX seem to show the average across all the data, but I need the Average for all of the Months in the dataset in 1 KPI.
I have Total Units and Order Date, how would I write a DAX for Average Monthly Units for a KPI. Not in a Chart but a single KPI.
So I need to calculate the # of Months in the Period of the datest and then the average for each month and then the average for all of those.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Please show an example data and expect result.
For example,
Example data:
| date | units |
| 1/1/2018 | 1 |
| 1/2/2018 | 2 |
| 1/3/2018 | 3 |
| 1/4/2018 | 4 |
| 1/5/2018 | 5 |
| 1/6/2018 | 6 |
| 1/7/2018 | 7 |
| 1/8/2018 | 8 |
In Power BI, Create a measure,
average = CALCULATE(AVERAGE(Table1[units]),ALLSELECTED(Table1))
add it in a KPI, it shows a result as below:
