Standard Deviation as a column either in Power Query or DAX
- 2 years ago
Hi satkin - I am assuming your table is named standardObservations and your columns are date, Variables, and Values
create a dax measure as follows and before that I hope you have a seperate date table created in your model. if not please create it.
Measure:
StdDevLast6Months =
VAR CurrentDate = MAX('standardObservations'[Date])
VAR StartDate = EDATE(CurrentDate, -6)
RETURN
CALCULATE(
STDEV.P('standardObservations'[Values]),
FILTER(
'standardObservations',
'standardObservations'[Date] >= StartDate &&
'standardObservations'[Date] <= CurrentDate &&
'standardObservations'[Variable] = MAX('Observations'[Variable])
)
)Did I answer your question? Mark my post as a solution! This will help others on the forum!

satkin although rajendraongole1 has given the solution, as a best practice, add a date dimension in your model and use it for time intelligence calculations. Once the date dimension is added, mark it as a date table on table tools. Check the related videos on my YT channel
Add Date Dimension
Importance of Date Dimension
Mark date dimension as a date table - why and how?
Time Intelligence Playlistand then I will write a DAX measure like this:
StdDevLast6Months = CALCULATE( STDEV.P('standardObservations'[Values]), DATESINPERIOD ( 'Calendar'[Date], MAX ( 'Calendar'[Date] ), -6, MONTH ) )
