Sum of Average

Hi All,

 

I have a column in a table with below expression

AVERAGEX(VALUES('VW_PRS_LifeCycleState2'[LifeCycleState]),CALCULATE(AVERAGE(VW_PRS_LifeCycleState2[Target_Round2])))

 

I need to have the total displayed with SUM of "Average" of all the detail rows. The above expression is working fine for Average in detail rows while total is not correct. Currently total as well is doing the average while i need the SUM of averages.

 

Please suggest?

 

Thanks

Gaurav

Hi @GM17,

 

Please create a measure with below formula:

Average =
SUMX (
    VALUES ( 'VW_PRS_LifeCycleState2'[LifeCycleState] ),
    AVERAGE ( VW_PRS_LifeCycleState2[Target_Round2] )
)

@GM17 go to the data 

 

Create the New Column & Enter the Function 

 

SumofAverage =AVERAGEX(VALUES('VW_PRS_LifeCycleState2'[LifeCycleState]),CALCULATE(AVERAGE(VW_PRS_LifeCycleState2[Target_Round2])))

Create New Column 

 

Column =  [SumofAverage ]

if you find any difficulty share the sample data
