Matrix Columns

[Anonymous]

Hello everyone !

I have built a matrix in Power BI and I would like to create a calculated column in the same matrix. I would like to know if it's possible to use calculated columns I have created previously in the matrix. These calculated columns only exist in the matrix and I need to use them in my formula. In other words, can I refer to specific columns that exist only in the matrix to build a new calculated column ? If it's possible, how can I do it ?

Thank you for your help !

Hi, @Anonymous 

Yes, an already created calculated column you can almost treat as a normal column, and you can also create another calculated column based on the calculated column.

If your calculated column aggregates data in a matrix and you need to create a calculated column based on the aggregated data, then you may create other calculated columns considering aggregation operations. Or you use measures to help you.

Please consdier sharing more details about it and posting expected result if I didn't understand your question correctly.
