Calculated Items in Tabular Editor are not showing in the Power BI desktop

Hello,

 

I've finally managed to open the Tabular editorfrom Power BI desktop. 

Even if I followed the Youtube tutorial very carefully, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6si02kf4eU I can't see any of my calculated items in PowerBI desktop.  I can only see the name of the folder and one heading item in the desktop. 

Any help would be appricaited.

Thanks you

 

Here is the items in Tabular Editor

Thanks for your reply @amitchandak .  I've tried to put something in the value field and tried to put something in the legend field.  Both didn't work. I think I should go through the docs you sent me.

Thanks for you help.

@Anonymous , Yes they will appear as one item, and you need to use that on-axis or row or column.
