How to get the correct value with average function?

Hi everbody,

I have a problem with function Avg(), due to I can´t get the real value when I try to use it.

I have a table in excel like this:

table.JPG

I need to calculate the average time for each vacancy and display it for each Analist. In excel, I can get the table with these data (I use formule of course) and obtain the exactly values, but when I try to do in Qlik, the average isn't correct.

I obtain the time response like this: DATE FINISH - DATE REQ. If I want to get the time average in Qlik,  I just select the pivot table with this data:

Dimension: Year, Vacancy

Measure: Avg([TIME RESPONSE])

My pivot table looks like this:

table1.jpg

Here's the problem...the results in Qlik are very different when I use Average function

So, I don't know how obtain the same results in both Qlik and Excel.

Who can help me?!!

P.D. Sorry if my english have some mistakes...

‌Try this:

Avg(Aggr(Avg([TIME RESPONSE]), Year, Vacancy, Analist))

Hi, that expression works for my example...but how could apply that concept in my excel file (attach) -it's in spanish but the idea is the same-. I want to provide this example:

Vacancy

Time

Response

MonthAnalist
Seller30JanCarl
Seller52JanCarl
Seller15JanCarl
Seller40JanFred
Seller22JanFred
Seller12FebCarl
Seller10FebFred
Seller30FebFred

Average time response for January / Seller / Carl: 32,33

Average time response for January / Seller / Fred: 31,00

Average time response for January / Seller : average(32,33;31) -->31,66

Average time response for Febrary/ Seller / Carl: 12

Average time response for Febrary/ Seller / Fred: 20

Average time response for Febrary / Seller : average(12;20) -->16


If I want to create an average for Jan-Feb in a excel, the table looks like this

    

CarlFredTime Response Average
Seller =average(Jan;Feb) =average(Jan;Feb) =average(Carl_Seller; Fred_Seller)


CarlFredTime Response Average
Seller 22,16 25,5 23,83

So, when I try to reply this calculation in Qlik Sense (I use your expression), the result it's different to my file (attach)

I need to do this for compare 2 years (2016-2017) per Analist per Vacancy (like pivot table). Maybe I have been doing something wrong, but I can't found it.

I hope that my question can be solution.

Thanks.
