Hello MartynRamsden ,

Thanks for your reply, it helped a lot.
For clearance, I'll upload the data model with all calculated metrics for different reports then I should create different reports on App.
If I need 10 different key measure for 10 different reports, I need to calculate in Desktop and save it to same file.
Is that correct way to do that?
