What are these values with bar chart icon + fx?

Hi,
I am taking over a report that is not documented so am now going through all tables, model etc. There is a matrix taking data from one table, where columns FX Effect, Price Effect etc. are abs numbers. In the matrix I see additionally Values "FX Effect in %", "Price Effect in %" etc.. These are not measures existing in the measure list, nor are they the actual columns shown as percent of total

When I click on the arrow, I can go to Edit calculation, which takes me here:

What are these Values, how are they created?
Thanks in advance!

Hi @KaterinaB 

 

Those visual cues are most likely for visual calculations as those icons appear when you create one.
