Hi @SamKum ,
Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Fabric Community Forum regarding the issue you're experiencing.

By design, there is no option to create a new measure directly in the Data Warehouse table view. However, you can create a new semantic model. By opening the data model view, you may be able to access the measure creation option. Proving the screenshots below for your reference which may assist you in resolving the issue.

1.Select new semantic model and select the required table and confirm.

2.Then in the workspace, a new semantic will create.

Thank you for the response. In the warehouse experience, new measure cannot be created, is that the conclusion? I see a Udemy video shows that option. Does that mean previously this option was available in Data Warehouse directly?

But previously it was possible!
And it was better option, because I was able to make measures in measure table directly in DWH in defoult semantic model and from that when I create some other semantic model just use that table with all measures.
Now for each new sematnic model I have to again create measures - repetitively copy each time.
Why Fasbric team disabled this option?
