difference between average and time sum function ?
Sum function will aggregate the data whereas AVERAGE function will take the average.
For example in above screenshot, right side in total Salary line item we are taking SUM of Salary by Country, so for IND it is showing 600 (100+200+300) whereas for Avg Salary line item it shows the average salary by Country i.e. 200 (600/3).
@divyanshsharma timesum aggregates the value between two periods .https://help.anaplan.com/timesum-45c3bc48-4d80-490d-9b18-76af505c6907
TIMESUM function aggregates the data from a line item with time dimension to a line item without time dimension. Whereas average function takes the average as mentioned in my comment above.
Hi

Average is just Sum of records divided with No.of Records where as Timesum is considered to sum specific data dimensioned by time with defined/optional start and end periods
