    Hi nshaw75 ,

     

    You can use DAX to create calculated columns in Power BI Desktop.

     

    For more details on creating calculated columns in Power BI Desktop, see:

    Tutorial: Create calculated columns in Power BI Desktop - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

     

    As for the "Person" or "Group" fields you see displayed as a list, you can find them by navigating to "Power Query" and finding the " People/Groups" column.

     

    Expand the column by clicking the expand icon (two arrows) in the column header. Select the specific fields you want.

     

    You can then Close and Apply.

     

    If you have any other questions please feel free to contact me.

     

    Best Regards,

Hi Anonymous ,

Thanks for taking the time to reply. At the moment I have had to focus on a few other jobs I have on, I had assumed it was all pretty straight forward, but I had under estimated the task ion front of me. As soon as I can pick this up again I will  go through and let you know the out come. Many thanks again
