Hi  @Anonymous ,

 

What data does the average time to calculate? Is it [in network] = "Y" data?

You can try:

AVG = AVERAGEX(FILTER(ALL('Table'),'Table'[in network] = "Y"),'Table'[wait time])

If that's not what you need, provide sample data and projected output.

i would make a new column named average wait time once i calculate the averages of the wait time column if that makes sense.
