Refer to a Calculated Measure in Tabular Editor inside a Calculation Item Expression
Community SupportHi , Mbuhary_AOud
Thanks for your quick response ! Do you mean you need to use the calculated item in the same calculated group?
For an example , you want to use the [Type] in the [New Calculation]?
If this , i think you can not just use it directly . In my understand , the calculated group is used to expnad the dimension for the current measure. And for each item has their own contect filter in this visual and do not affect each other.
So , we can not just use the 'Calculated Group'[Item] to use it in the other Item.
If you want to use the other value , i think you need to copy the whole dax code in this item as a parameter using the "VAR" to define it.
The result is as follows:
By another , in my understand , we can not also use the other item in the differnt calculated group.
Thank you for your time and sharing, and thank you for your support and understanding of PowerBI!

I am sorry for not making it clear.
I know how to use one "Calculation item" inside another "Calculation item".
Here my question is how to use "Calculated Measure" inside a Calculation item.
Provided the calculated measure is created in Tabular Editor and not in Desktop.
Hope its clear now.

If i do not understand your need , you can give the detailed steps in your side .
