Duplicating a DAX folder

Hey,

 

I have a number of time intelligence functions for gross sales. I want to make these same measures for a number of other key kpi's (net sales, discount, refund...). Is it possible to duplicate the folder (Gross)? This way I can easily just modify the dax without copying and pasting which takes forever and is error prone. 

 

 

Any advice is highly appreciated 🙂 

 

Thanks!

 

 

  • I don't know a way of doing this inside of Power Bi. But Tabular editor, a 3rd party program might have the functionality you're looking for. I use this for larger scale of copying and pasting in slower data models.

  • NickolajJessen I will download this, see it is a paid solution. I will see if there is also a free solution? For now I have downloaded the trial. How do you do this in tabular editor?

      Ye, i've only ever used the free versions. Free version lacks intellisence, which is a hassle, if you want to use it as your main tool, but fine if you're doing copy paste with only minor changes.

      Did you manage to connect to your model? After that it's just a matter of:
      1. Select Measure(s)
      2. Press Ctrl + C
      3. Press Ctrl + V
