Each card summarises one field: summed, counted or averaged.
Key points
SumAdd everything up: total revenue.
CountHow many values: count the OrderIDs to get the number of orders.
AverageThe typical value: average order size.
A card shows one number. Pick the field, then how to summarise it.
In Power BI Desktop
Choose the Card visual and drag a field into Fields. Click the small arrow next to the field to switch between Sum, Average, Count and the rest.
