Hi everyone,
I have a simple question:
Why in the bar where you write DaxCode I can't insert the variables of my model?
Here one screenshot to make an idea of what I'm saying.. why am I not able to recall the numerical vars of the row into the formula?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @giroldoale ,
In a measure formula, you need to refer to fields like this.
You can refer to the field directly in the calculated column.
The reason is that measure returns a value, so it is necessary to summarize the referenced field.
Best regards,
Lionel Chen

@giroldoale ,The information you have provided is not making the problem clear to me. Can you please explain with an example?
A measure takes to measure, so if you have to use a column, you have to use it some aggregation
