{"active":true,"blog_title":null,"blog_url":null,"feature_description":"Calculation groups are a simple way to reduce the number of measures in a model by grouping common measure expressions. Calculation groups work with existing explicit DAX measures by automating repetitive patterns. For example, a sales analyst might want to view sales and order quantities by month-to-date (MTD), quarter-to-date (QTD), year-to-date (YTD), orders year-to-date for the previous year (PY), and so on.Calculation groups are supported by Power BI models, however they're an engine-only feature. With this enhancement, data modelers will be able to create calculation groups by using Power BI Desktop.","feature_name":"Author calculation groups","last_modified":"2024-03-25","product_id":"642a8375-05fc-ee11-a1ff-000d3a341a60","product_name":"Power BI","release_date":"2024-03-25","release_item_id":"deda5fc6-99fc-ee11-a1ff-000d3a341a60","release_status":"Shipped","release_type":"Public preview"}
