Visualization Graphs/Average and Labels

[Anonymous]

Good day Community, 

I have prbably simple question. I have data which looks like that. Data comes from similar Excel files from different assessments:

                   ITEM 1                               ITEM 2                    ITEM 2

Manager      GOOD                               BAD                    NOT ASSESSED

Operator   NOT ASSESSED                 VERY GOOD               BAD

Assistant       GOOD                       AVERAGE                      NOT ASSESSED   

In a background of Excel, I have chaged asessemnt crtieria to NUMBERS to allow better visualization for AREA CHARTS etc... Text can only be presented by PIE CHARTS in %.  

GOOD is 5

AVERAGE is 3 

NOT ASSESED is 0 

Question #1: In need average mark for every  item, how to exclude 0 mark from average. I do not want to hide 0 as I want to know how many times "NOT ASSESSED" was used. 

Question#2: On are chart, It will preferlty show what I need if I use numbers - Can I change legend and labels in Power Bi to customize numbers back to TEXT for better understanding of reader?

@Anonymous - I would unpivot those last three columns (ITEM1, ITEM2, ITEM3) in Power Query. You could get the average of no 0's by doing something like:

You could create a column then like this:

Column = SWITCH([Value],"GOOD",5,"AVERAGE",3,"NOT ASSESSED",0)

Then a measure like this:

Measure = AVERAGEX(FILTER('Table',[Column]<>0),[Column])

@Greg_Deckler  - Thanks Greg. 

I figured out how to deal with average exlusion of ) values. However still not able to figure out if my another idea is possible at all. 

Please see screen - TO have this graph I need Numbers but Not Text. I woul like to keep this type of graph by I woul like to use text for labels - this is where I struggle. Reader needs to undertand what 3.0 means, this for example "Meet Standard" etc...

For Q2, you may create another column as the labels, something like:

Column 2 = SWITCH(TRUE(),[Measure]<3,"Don't Meet Standard",[Measure]>=3,"Meet Standard")
