Find origin and behaviour of legacy dataset calculated table in PBI Desktop

Hi,

 

I am working with a legacy dataset created by others. It has a calculated table (Vencimientos facturas) that generates me several doubts. As said, this is the dataset pbix, so no access permissions limitations.

 

  1. It seems to be a calculated table, but it does not show any Dax formulas when I click on it.
  2. It has two columns, but I only see one in the right pane (Unhide All already selected)Agucho76_0-1709103238282.png

     

  3. It has no relationships with other tables

  4. Nevertheless, when used as column in a matrix visual, it works like a charm
  5. It even assigns a special currency format to values, adding the currency of values displayed that can be different in each row.

Of course it is not in Power Query.

 

How can I find and edit the origin and behaviour of this table? I want to learn what it is and how it has been set to recognize groups of invoices whether they are overdue or not, and add currency name to values.

Thanks!!
