Better Aggregation Handling in Dimension Tables in Power BI Desktop

[MattAllington]

This is a brief post to ask you all for your help in getting a Power BI Desktop change through.  Please give me 3 mins of your time.

Note below the default aggregation behaviour of all these columns in the Calendar table is "SUM". No one wants to SUM a Year or Month Number column.  Yes, sometimes you do want to sum a column in a dimension table but it is the exception, not the rule.

If you agree, please click the link below and vote to have the default behaviour changed.

Great idea

It's something I've always found very annoying
