@Anonymous , measures means summarization

 

Display or context is Key

Like 

ID is column

ID measure = max(Table[ID]) is measure

 

Now in visual if you put not summarized ID with ID measure. It will give the same result.

@Anonymous Hard to be specific without the code but generally it is fairly straight-forward, you wrap your column references in something like MAX, MIN, etc.

 

Need to see code.

Currency is the measure and currencyID is column.
