    Hi Pedro77000 ,

     

    We can create a measure as below.

    Measure =
VAR SUMA =
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( 'Table'[value] ),
        FILTER ( ALL ( 'Table' ), 'Table'[date] <= MAX ( 'date'[Date] ) )
    )
VAR COUNTM =
    CALCULATE (
        DISTINCTCOUNT ( 'Table'[YearMOnth] ),
        FILTER ( ALL ( 'Table' ), 'Table'[date] <= MAX ( 'date'[Date] ) )
    )
RETURN
    DIVIDE ( SUMA, COUNTM )

     

    Also you can find the pbix as attached.

    Hi Pedro77000 ,

     

    To use ALLEXCEPT instead of ALL should work.

     

    FILTER ( ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table','Table'[region] ), 'Table'[date] <= MAX ( 'date'[Date] ) )

     

    If it doesn't meet your requirement,  Kindly share your sample data and excepted result to me if you don't have any Confidential Information. Please upload your files to One Drive and share the link here.

Good morning v-frfei-msft !!

 

Thank you very much for this reply.

The solution works well. But this average I cannot have it by region, I believe because of the filter ALL.

The average for the total is good but when I split by region, it's the same overall average that appears in front of each region.

Hi Pedro77000 

 

Try changing ALL to ALLSELECTED and then it should carry your filters through.
