        Hi Anonymous ,

         

        Yes... I don't see why one one is talking about it. We are able to create report-level measures but we cannot organize it. The feature literally exists but we are blocked from using it.

         

        This is really the only thing that is turning my experience with a live connection quite unpleasant.

        Best regards,
