New Calculation Group greyed out

I have model with compatabilty level 1601 that already has 2 calculation groups.  I wanted to add another calculation group but the option is greyed out. Also I cannot add new calcaution items to the existing groups?

 

Any suggestions appreciated

Hi @mike_asplin 

 

In Power BI Desktop you can also add calculation groups in the model view under semantic model:

What is the type of semantic model you are using? A import model, direct query?

Hi @mike_asplin ,

 

There should not be any problem in adding new calculation groups or items to a model, where do you have the option greyed out is it in the semantic model in the Model view?
