Unable to Summarize column in table

I  am unable to summarize any column in a Table or place any column in "Value's" for a Matrix. I did'nt have this issue before I updated to the latest Desktop version. The ony option for Summarizing or placing in "Values" is to create a Measure.

Seems like the issue was with the file itself. I installed the previous Desktop version, but the issue was still there. I had a slightly older version of the file (I always make backups when I change something). When using the older file the issue was gone.

 

I have no idea what happened to the original file

Hi @HarCopy ,

 

Please delete and reinstall Power BI Desktop to see if it works.

 

Version: 2.100.1182.0 

 


If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information or the expected result you expect. Let me know immediately, looking forward to your reply.
Best Regards,

I'm still having this exact same issue except i cannot rebuild my entire datamodel, it took years to build it in the first place

@HarCopy , I do not face any issue like that.

Check if any other use faced it https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Issues/idb-p/Issues

 

You can revert to an older version if needed
