Average Time difference

[Liwi]

Hi All,

I am failing to figure out how to calculate the average difference between moves of product

- within one area ( average of max date - min date for all IDs )

- between different areas ( average (max date of one area - min of other area) for all IDs

ie

ID	Area	Date
A	1	01/01/2018
A	2	02/01/2018
A	3	05/01/2018
A	3	06/01/2018
B	1	05/01/2018
B	2	06/01/2018
B	3	08/01/2018
B	3	10/01/2018
B	3	11/01/2018

- Avg time for moves in Area 3 - ID A = 1, ID B = 3; AVG = 2

- Avg Time between area 1 & 3 - ID A = 5, ID B = 6; AVG = 5.5

I have tried to use measure with SUMMARIZE but hit a wall.

Appreciate if someone could point me in right direction

Thank you in advance

I tried to follow this, but not having much success. The following is based upon the description of average of max - min of all ids

Product Within One Area = 
VAR myTable = SUMMARIZE(Areas,[ID],[Area],"Max",MAX(Areas[Date]))
VAR myAverage = AVERAGEX(myTable,[Max])
VAR myMin = CALCULATE(MIN(Areas[Date]),ALL(Areas))
RETURN myAverage - myMin

UPDATE: OK, after re-reading this and then realizing that your dates were not US date format and switching that up, try this one instead:

Product Within One Area = 
VAR myTable = SUMMARIZE(Areas,[ID],[Area],"Max",MAX(Areas[Date])-MIN(Areas[Date]))
RETURN AVERAGEX(myTable,[Max])

What is the format of your Output?? Card Visual or Table

For individual calculations you can use MEASURES like following

Avg time for moves in Area 3 =
VAR Cat_A =
    CALCULATE ( MAX ( Table1[Date] ), Table1[ID] = "A", Table1[Area] = 3 )
        - CALCULATE ( MIN ( Table1[Date] ), Table1[ID] = "A", Table1[Area] = 3 )
VAR Cat_B =
    CALCULATE ( MAX ( Table1[Date] ), Table1[ID] = "B", Table1[Area] = 3 )
        - CALCULATE ( MIN ( Table1[Date] ), Table1[ID] = "B", Table1[Area] = 3 )
RETURN
    ( Cat_A + Cat_B )
        / 2

Avg time between Area 1 & 3 =
VAR Cat_A =
    CALCULATE ( MAX ( Table1[Date] ), Table1[ID] = "A", Table1[Area] = 3 )
        - CALCULATE ( MIN ( Table1[Date] ), Table1[ID] = "A", Table1[Area] = 1 )
VAR Cat_B =
    CALCULATE ( MAX ( Table1[Date] ), Table1[ID] = "B", Table1[Area] = 3 )
        - CALCULATE ( MIN ( Table1[Date] ), Table1[ID] = "B", Table1[Area] = 1 )
RETURN
    ( Cat_A + Cat_B )
        / 2

Hi There,

Thank you for your suggestion.

However I have 1000's of IDs which are constantly added to the data model.

I was able to come up with below for same area:

VAR Tbl1 =
SUMMARIZE(filter(TableName,[Area]="3"),Append1[ID],"DIFF_FOR_AREA3",DATEDIFF(MIN([DATE]),MAX(DATE]),hour)/24)
RETURN
AVERAGEX ( Tbl1, [DIFF_FOR_AREA3] )

Still having issue with difference between 2 areas 😞

Product Within One Area = 
VAR myTable = SUMMARIZE(Areas,[ID],[Area],"Max",MAX(Areas[Date])-MIN(Areas[Date]))
RETURN AVERAGEX(myTable,[Max])

Thank you Greg.

Your solution is very simillar to what I managed to produce:

VAR Tbl1 =
SUMMARIZE(filter(TableName,[Area]="3"),Append1[ID],"DIFF_FOR_AREA3",DATEDIFF(MIN([DATE]),MAX(DATE]),hour)/24)
RETURN
AVERAGEX ( Tbl1, [DIFF_FOR_AREA3] )

However I think your avg takes into account other areas where the result is 0. Like below your average would be 1 while should be 2

ID	Area	Date	Result
A	1	01/01/2018	0
A	3	05/01/2018	1
B	1	05/01/2018	0
B	3	08/01/2018	3

Do you have an idea how can I custommize my below to work for 2 areas? 

VAR Tbl1 =
SUMMARIZE(filter(TableName,[Area]="3"),Append1[ID],"DIFF_FOR_AREA3",DATEDIFF(MIN([DATE]),MAX(DATE]),hour)/24)
RETURN
AVERAGEX ( Tbl1, [DIFF_FOR_AREA3] )

Thank you for your time

I think I figured it ou.

Below seems to work in between 2 Areas

VAR Tbl2 =
SUMMARIZE(filter(TableName,[Area]="Area 1"||[Area]="Area 3" ),[ID],"AREA_1-AREA_3",DATEDIFF(Min([DATE]),MAX([DATE]),HOUR)/24)
RETURN
AVERAGEX ( Tbl2, [AREA_1-AREA_3] )

Thanks a million for your efforts
