Excel Pivot Table - Power Pivot - Average Help
This is my sample table data, and my pivot table. I am trying to get the pivot table to show the average duration it took for the two applications to get approved, 75.5 days. I created a pivot ...

Lorenzo But what if another ID also has a duration of 31 days? Then the average should become (31+31+120)/3 = 60,67
You'll need a measure that takes distinct ID's into account. Not just distinct duration values. Such a measure would look like this:
=AVERAGEX(DISTINCT(SELECTCOLUMNS('Table', "ID", 'Table'[ID], "value", 'Table'[value])), [value])

Hi. I can see where the issue is occurring. Your Pivot is averaging the two entries in the PivotTable rather than the four entries in the Sample Data. Unfortunately, I can't seem to get a work around. Perhaps you need to add all the ApprovalDuration to the PivotTable and group them before averaging?
