"Do not summarize" missing
- 11 years ago
tkaczmarczyk unfortunately, unlike Power Pivot in Excel, the Desktop does not support "Do not summarize" right now. The only way to get rid of those Sum symbols is to mark your columns as text instead of number (so you can have your Year column of data type Text and not Whole Number).
Not elegant by any means but helps in the short run until it gets fixed, hopefully soon...
Here is the idea for it, can't believe it only had 1 vote when I went to it:
Oops. Had a period at the end of the link. This one should work better: https://support.powerbi.com/knowledgebase/articles/471200-change-the-aggregation-in-a-chart-sum-average-m - and this implies that this feature exists somewhere, but I can see it neither in the browser-based Power BI service nor in Power BI Desktop:
Do you see that option for your data sets? Perhaps it's a bug with the way Power BI handles Azure SQL.
