source="aaa"|transaction TaskName startswith=START endswith=Succeeded|table TaskBP duration

TaskName duration

Task1 1.90

Task2 2.67

Task1 7.55

another table with Taskname and its average duration by using the below search

source="aaa"|transaction TaskName startswith=START endswith=Succeeded|stats avg(duration) by taskname |table taskname avg(duration)

You want that the searchA and searchB return a single line per field1, otherwise the join between the 2 lists will be wrong.

An example with a join between a list of users and the logins per server can be :
index=users username=* email=*
| stats values(email) AS email by username
| JOIN username
[
search index=servers login username=*
| stats values(host) AS server_login_list earliest(_time) AS recent_login earliest(host) AS recent_server by username
]
| table username email server_login_list recent_login recent_server

use a join on the common field

mysearchA | table field1 field2
| JOIN field1 [ mysearchB | table field1 field3]
| table field1 field2 field3

see http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/SearchReference/Join

How is this different from the other question you had regarding adding an avg(duration) value to your search?
