Help explain this Measure Type

Please see the type of measure in the image below (the one with a squiggly arrow).   I can't locate the source calculation of this measure and don't completely understand how it is derived.  Any insight would be much appreciated.  Thank you!Measure Image.png

Hi @Ad550 ,

 

By default, measures are not placed in a separate table category in the field list. However, it is possible to create a measure group, which is a collection of measures that can be grouped together and displayed in a separate category in the field list. To create a measure group, you can use the "New Group" option in the field list, and then drag and drop the measures you want to include in the group into the new category.

It's also possible that the measures you are seeing in a separate category in the field list were created by someone else and placed in a measure group by them. If you are not sure how the measure group was created, you may want to reach out to the person who created the report or the Power BI model to ask for more information.


If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information and let me know immediately. Looking forward to your reply.


Best Regards,
Henry
