average by filtering doesnt work
Dear Community, I dont understand why the average doesnt work when I use filter: For example: if I choose a sell team I get the right percentage of sells but if I choose 2 sells team I dont get ...
It’s most likely due to the way Power BI filters first, then calculates. Eg
team A has 3 records
5,6,7 = avg of 6
team B has 6 records
10,12,10,20,18,20 = avg 15
avg across both teams = 10.5
but Power BI will add the total (108) divided by 9 = 12
you can solve it with averagex
=AVERAGEX(values(table[team]),[your measure]]
