Consolidating Cities into Regions

All Stars:

 

I have a table which contains all the restaurant locations by city in the State of Texas.  I would like to roll-up or consolidate restaurants into regions for four of the major metropolitan areas in the state - Dallas/Fort Worth, Houston, Austin, and San Antonio.  Each region/metropolitan area contains multiple cities [e.g., DFW MA includes 200 cities] - what would be the best approach to create these regions?

 

Thank you!

    Hey AaronGlenn10 ,

     

    I'm happy you can solve it with the "New Group" function.

    Hey AaronGlenn10 ,

     

    you have multiple possibilities to group.

    Do you want to do this manually or do you have a file to map?

    You could do it in Power Query, with a calculated column or the "New Group" function in PowerBI.

     

    If you need any help please let me know.
