Hi @EZgrafton,

 

Do you mean the Group feature as below image shows?

If so, this feature is supported after Oct update. And this Group selection is only available for columns without any aggregation (don't summarize). If I have something misunderstood, please describe more clearly about what is the Group feature that you want. 

 

Reference: Column Grouping In PowerBI

 

Thanks,
