    Hi Kelly

     

    Thank you for the link - it doesn't excatly cover my question, but i'm afraid i haven't been clear enough.

     

    It is clear that tabular editor forces the setting "Discourage Implicit Measures = true", when a model uses calculation groups(CGs), this effectively disables creation of new implicit measures.

    The documentation states that CGs are incompatible with implicit measures, but actually Implicit measures work just fine, they are just uaffected by CGs (which ofcourse is important to be aware of)

     

    My question is if it is in any way possible to overrule tabular editor, and reenable implict measures while having CGs

        Hi Kelly

         

        yes i tried but it won't allow me to modify the setting (see below)

        what i'm looking for is a way to override the restriction directly in tabular editor or in the pbix model
