I have a column(size) which I imported from MySQL database to the dashboard which is in bytes and I need to convert it into gega/tera bytes.

Hi @Anonymous ,

Is this what you want?

If so,

1. you can add two columns in Power Query Editor like so:

byte1.PNG

byte2.PNG

2. Or you can create two columns or measures in Power BI Desktop.

gega byte measure = DIVIDE(MAX('Table'[Size]),POWER(1024,3))
tera byte measure = DIVIDE(MAX('Table'[Size]),POWER(1024,4))
gega byte column = DIVIDE('Table'[Size],POWER(1024,3))
tera byte column = DIVIDE('Table'[Size],POWER(1024,4))
