I have tried several times to create measures with the data mart tools provided in the Power BI service
But when I click on the tick button or CR then the code is wiped and all that remains is Sales£ =
When i go to the associated data set and try to use the measure there is no error but the measure returns nulls
What am I missing ?
Solved! Go to Solution.
I tried to create a measure many times yesterday , by typing the formula in different ways and also by using intellisense. But each time I tried to save the formula it was erased. I tried again today by seleting the intellisense again and it saved it right away.
Looks like someone has fixed the problem , so thank you.

Hi @Anonymous
What happens if you just try and create the measure with the following below?
Sales = SUM('Sales_Data'[Sales Amount])
If that does work maybe you need a space between the name and the symbol?
