Hi all, I was wondering if anyone found an easy way to turn off automatic summation when loading data into Power BI Desktop. I find that all of my numeric columns are automatically summed and I have to manually go in and select "Don't summarize" for every single spreadsheet I load in. I have seen others try to solve this problem, but their solutions are either outdated or do not apply to PBI Desktop. I am really tired of having to turn off summation for every individual column I use.
