Using Tableau 8.1.
Daily data like this:
Date Sales
1-1-14 $5
1-2-14 $2
...
6-15-14 $15
Which can be aggregated to weeks of course
Week 1 $15
Week 2 $12
Week 3 $10
Week 4 $13
etc.
I would like to get the weekly average of each month
So like this:
Weekly Average
Month 1 (weekly average of the weekly total sales) ($15+$12+$10+13)/4 = 12.5
Month 2
Month 3
Does that make sense? If ou simply put "average" in the tableau table, it gives the average daily value PER WEEK (or month) < - I don't want that. I want the average of the weekly totals per month.
Quite simple, actually. Create these calculations
Unique Weeks = COUNTD(DATEPART('week',[Date]))
Weekly Average = sum([Sales])/[Unique Weeks]
Then simply report Weekly Average x Month (or Quarter or Year, etc.)
(Note: Some weeks have < 7 days).
