Hi,
I am having an issue with duration. In M Query everything looks right and I have it set as duration 0.00:00:00, but once it comes into PBI I get nothing but Zeros. When I hit the drop down filter I will see long decimal number like 0.0118518518518519 etc.
I need to be able to find the average duration. This is for call logs. I can keep it as text in M Query and it will come accross in the duration format, buts a text and I cant calculate averages on a text field.
How do you process durations in PBI to calculate and measure average duration?

@rjs2 Just to add to @az38 , what I believe you are seeing is fractions of a day. So 2 hours for example is 1/24 * 2. Minutes are 1/24/60 and seconds are 1/24/60/60.
You may want to review this article as I am assuming that you will want to display them as distances at some point

Hi @rjs2
I do not see a straight way to convert M-duration to DAX (maybe I'm missing smth)
As you did not provide more data model details - have a look at @Greg_Deckler solution https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Aggregating-Duration-Time/ba-p/22486
