Hi,
I can't figure out the formula for getting the input of a calculation that gets the average. To then use in another calculation to project forward. Here is the original calculation and return answer.
Average Per Plant, Total = iferror( [Weight] / [ Plant Harvested ] ) , 0 )
I want the "96" Calculated number to use in a forecasting projection forward for all the rows. How do I do this?
Ultimately, I am looking to get to the specific average yield per plant to project forward. Or the average of all the plants as a plug number. I was thinking about this formula, but the "Plug" or "96" measure I am stuck on.
Here is what I am thinking:
Next Month's Harevest Projection = ( IFERROR (
if ( [Current Harvesting] - [Harvested] ) <1,
( ( [ Current Harvesting ] - [ Harvested ] ) * [ Per Plant Harvested ] ) ,
( ( [ Current Harvesting ] - [ Harvested ] ) * [ "Plug" or "96" measure] ) )
,0 )
)
Thank you so much!
