Hi @akhaliq7 

 

If your group by breaks query folding, you can use Group by statement in a native query to query the same data source. For example, SQL Server GROUP BY  and Oracle GROUP BY 

 

You can also create a view with Group By in the database in advance, then connect your Power BI report to the view.
