Taking the average of a subset of a rolling sum (DirectQuery)

Hi all,

 

I have transactional inventory data that I am looking to summarize as a running total by Fiscal Period (a daterange defined by our personal fiscal calendar) and then take the average of the last 13 of those periods.

 

My end goal is a card visual showing just the average value of the last 13 periods of the running sum. I use a field "PERIODOFFSET" that has a numeric (1, 0, -1, etc) to denote the current fiscal period (0) or 1 period back (-1), etc.

 

My calculation is like this:

Cumulative TOTALASSETS =
CALCULATE (
SUM ( InventoryTable[TOTALASSETS]),
FILTER (
ALL ( FiscalCalendarTable[PeriodOffset] ),
FiscalCalendarTable[PeriodOffset] <= IF(FiscalCalendarTable[PeriodOffset] <= -1, MAX(FiscalCalendarTable[PeriodOffset] ),-1))
)
 
Basically I'd like the values that it returns from PERIODOFFSET -1 to -13 (representing the last 13 periods) and then average them. This calculation gives me the sum for each period, but only if each period is in the view. My goal is a single number card.
 
Any ideas?

hi, @BSLATTER 

Sorry for late reply, You could use these two formulae to create two measure

Cumulative sum = CALCULATE(SUM(transactional[Amount]),FILTER(ALLSELECTED('calendar'),calendar[Period Offset]<=MAX(calendar[Period Offset])))
Average of Last 13 Periods = var _table=SUMMARIZE('calendar','calendar'[Period Offset],"CAmount", [Cumulative sum]) return
CALCULATE(AVERAGEX(FILTER(_table,[Period Offset]>=-13&&[Period Offset]<=-1),[CAmount]))

Result:

and here is pbix file, please try it.

hi, @BSLATTER 

it returns from PERIODOFFSET -1 to -13

If you need to add a conditional like red part as  below:

Cumulative TOTALASSETS =
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( InventoryTable[TOTALASSETS] ),
    FILTER (
        ALL ( FiscalCalendarTable[PeriodOffset] ),
        FiscalCalendarTable[PeriodOffset]
            <= IF (
                FiscalCalendarTable[PeriodOffset] <= -1,
                MAX ( FiscalCalendarTable[PeriodOffset] ),
                -1
            )
            && FiscalCalendarTable[PeriodOffset] >= -13
    )
)

Did the data I  provided give more context as to what I was looking for? I'm happy to provide anything else

Hello,

 

I am posting some sample data below. It is two tables - one transactional, and one showing how the fiscal calendar would be approximately setup. I'm also including a picture of the expected output (The "Average of Last 13 Periods" is my hopeful output)

hi, @BSLATTER 

Sorry for late reply, You could use these two formulae to create two measure

Cumulative sum = CALCULATE(SUM(transactional[Amount]),FILTER(ALLSELECTED('calendar'),calendar[Period Offset]<=MAX(calendar[Period Offset])))
Average of Last 13 Periods = var _table=SUMMARIZE('calendar','calendar'[Period Offset],"CAmount", [Cumulative sum]) return
CALCULATE(AVERAGEX(FILTER(_table,[Period Offset]>=-13&&[Period Offset]<=-1),[CAmount]))
