Slow DAX measure

Hi everyone!

 

I need to plot a measurement in a table, but it almost takes a minute to load the data. How can I solve this?

The DAX-formula is as follows:

 

# customers =
AVERAGEX(
SUMMARIZE(Customers;
[Year];
[Month];
"DC"; DISTINCTCOUNT(Customers[Customer_ID]));
[DC])
6 REPLIES 6

@Anonymous so you want average # of customers per year.

Hey @parry2k ,

 

No, I am sorry. The formula I have is working fine; the outcome of those numbers are correct. What I meant, was that I takes to long to load the table with the numbers in the report, since it has to make a couple of calculations every time you load that table.
