measure moving average
- 8 years ago
Hey,
here you will find my pbix file. I just added another page and created a simple table, this way was somewhat easier to read, than deduct the expected result from your graphs (wondering about the size of your screen :-) ).
I created 4 measure, two measures calculate the sum of quantities and sessions for the last 10days. The measure for quantity looks like this (session is similar)
sum quantity last 10 = var mylastdate = LASTDATE(VALUES(Calendar[Date])) var sumQuantity = CALCULATE( SUM('OrderItems'[Quantity]) ,DATESINPERIOD(Calendar[Date], mylastdate,-10,DAY) ) return sumQuantityAnd two measure that calculate the average
- the first one "avg conversion rate simple" dividing by dividing [sum quantity last 10] / [sum sessions last 10]
- the seond one "avgx conversion rate" iterates over the last 10 days and calculates the average from the divisions for each day
Here is the DAX of the first one, I recreated measures as variables to be sure to understand what's happening, I guess you can replace some of the DAX statement by simply using your existing measures:
avg conversion rate simple = var mylastdate = LASTDATE(VALUES(Calendar[Date])) var sumQuantity = CALCULATE( SUM('OrderItems'[Quantity]) ,DATESINPERIOD(Calendar[Date], mylastdate,-10,DAY) ) var sumSessions = CALCULATE( SUM('Sessions'[Sessions]) ,DATESINPERIOD(Calendar[Date], mylastdate,-10,DAY) ) return DIVIDE(sumQuantity, sumSessions, BLANK())Here is a screenshot of the table i used to validate the calculations:
One comment:
Wrong:
Using LastDate(...) -10 basically leads to a timeframe that contains 11 days, the lastdate (date of the current row) and 10 days before;-)Hopefully this is what you are looking for

Sorry- how do I do that? Make a copy of my file, and then delete out all the tables, relationships, etc- and manually fill in the data with false data?
I've searched and tried a number of things- can't seem to get this to work...
I have a Measure:
Conversion Rate =
DIVIDE((SUM(OrderItems[Quantity])), (SUM(Sessions[Sessions])))
I'd like a 10 Day Moving Average of that Measure.
I'm using a Calendar Table for the time. I have something like this, but can't seem to figure this out.
DATESINPERIOD(Calendar[Date], LASTDATE(Calendar[Date]),-10,DAY)
I'd really appreciate any direction here!
Thanks!
