Creating DAX measures while connected to OLAP cube.
Hello, I am attempting to create measures while connected to an OLAP cube however it seems that i am unable to as they icons are grayed out. Is there a workaround for this ? Thank you for...
Hi Anonymous ,
Did you connect to SSAS Multidimensional Models in connect live mode now ? Currently, only Tabular model supports to create report level measures in Power BI Desktop. For multidimensional cubes, you can't create any measures or calculated columns. You can see:
