Hello Power BI lovers!
I'm still in process of Power BI expressions acqusition and need some advice how to make a proper expression.
I have table: "Device statistics"
In "Device statistics" I have these columns:
Device Name | RAM in Freeze | City |
AN12345GI | 520 | Berlin |
KR5562KOT | 800 | Paris |
LO894H78D | 500 | Berlin |
PI4H49JTH7 | 727 | Ankara |
HI5O89FHE | 768 | Minsk |
KK456HTJW | 520 | Zagreb |
I need to show the average RAM in freeze by cities like (sum of RAM of the devices by location)/(quantity of the devices in this location).
To see: Berlin - 510, Paris - 800, Zagreb - 520, etc
If I chose Pie chart, put "RAM in Freeze" in Values, chose "Average" "City", put "City" in Details, it calculates average from the whole sum like 520+800+500+727+768+520.
Could you please advise how I can figure it out correctly?
Thanks in advance!
Hi @Khramana ,
You should just be able to create a measure like this and use it in the Values section of your pie chart:
_averageRamInFreeze = AVERAGE(yourTable[RAM in Freeze])

I guess I figured it out using your measure as an example just replacing Average with Median and changing widget to card for better vizualization.
Thank you very muh! 🙂
I'm not sure what your expected output was, but the AVERAGE measure works fine for me:
To get averages just over City, you must only have [City] and the measure in the visual (or filter context).

Hello @BA_Pete
Thank you for the reply!
But in this case it shows average in total taking all the cities. But not average for Berlin, Paris, etc...
This day I understood that the most exact way to understand the RAM will be to get Median by the cities or Percentile, seems that it make the question a bit more complicated too... Thinking about to make one more post with a question how to get Fashion for this case..
