weighted average date
How do calculate a measure for weigthed average date?
If I have a loading in 4 days:
April 3 2017: 100 kg
April 5 2017: 300kg
April 6 2017: 0 kg
April 10 2017: 50 kg
I would like a measure that provides me a weighted average of these three days by weight:
something like: Sum of dates multiply by the weights divided by total weight
When I try doing this I cannot put it in day format again
