Putting calculated measures into folders in report built on top of dataset

Hello, 

 

I've built a report on top of a dataset that I own and am using. 

 

As a part of this report, I have built many calculated measures and have gone into the model tab to organise and sort them out however the properties tab is greyed out so I can't put the measures into folders.

It's not imperative that I do this, but for continuity and neatness I would like to before I pass the report on. 

 

Does anyone know how I can do this?

Its a powerbi dataset conenction

 

yes measures are being created in the data report itself

@Anonymous ,

 

If you are using Power BI dataset then, the measures which was created in the dataset, you can't change their properties, it will be greyed out.

 

If you create new measure using that dataset in a new file then for these measures you can change the properties (you can create a folders). but not for thoese measure which was created in that power bi dataset.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Thanks & Regards,
