Partial average - how to?

Hi,

 

I have data for years and weeks (one value per year and week)

I want to create a line chart, which shows a line over all weeks for the last two years (2020 and 2019), and shows a third line with the average of all other years (2000-2018). How can this be done the easiest way?

 

Regards,

Thomas.

Hi @tez ,

Based on your description, you can create these measures:

2019 = 
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( 'Table'[Value] ),
    FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[date].[Year] = 2019 )
)
2020 = 
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( 'Table'[Value] ),
    FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[date].[Year] = 2020 )
)
Average = 
CALCULATE (
    AVERAGE ( 'Table'[Value] ),
    FILTER (
        ALL ( 'Table' ),
        'Table'[date].[Year] >= 2000
            && 'Table'[date].[Year] <= 2018
    )
)
