creating measures take long time
- 7 years ago
Yes, again!
Whenever you create a measure, PowerBI reviews its dataset to see what could inflict the new measure.
Having an imported dataset of +1gb is not fun to work with.Is working with DirectQuery a possibility? This wil only load the data you actually use.
Nowadays Tabular Editor is the way to go here, but still...
I haven't used tabular editor other to unsuccessful attempt to use it to convert from SSAS to datasets. Will give that a try for development work.
In fear of preaching to the choir...So curious why Microsoft doesn't provide the tabular editor themselves? So much emphasis on this tool and yet so little support for enterprise types of development. What would make WAY to much sense is if they simply supported datasets in SSDT like SSAS. Then transitioning from SSAS to PowerBI datasets would be basically seemless rather than having to start over again in PowerBI. Come on Microsoft....its the same product behind the scenes...seems insanity they are making this so difficult.
