Name: SummarizationSetBy and Value: Automatic It isn’t necessarily a filter as you would expect from other filter-like attributes, but rather used as a filter to change the perspective of the data you’re looking at. Add the Measure Field as a Group By Column This is what the end user will use to choose a date on which they’d like to filter.Set Sort By Column to use your Display Order Column.We will take each in turn as it’s easy to miss a step! Display Name Field Once renamed we now have to make a number of changes to each field in order for Power BI to recognise it as a parameter table. My preference is the following which I’ll use for the rest of the post. Originally, I thought you needed to match Power BI’s naming convention however this is not the case. ![]() Initially the table shows columns named Value1, Value2, Value3Īfter some investigation there is an option further down “Name Inferred” which needs to be set to False in order to allow a rename. So far so good! However we now hit some issues. I assume in a future release the standard naming convention of not including table names for measures will be allowed. Putting it back to the syntax Power BI used however worked. I initially took the code Power BI had generated and stripped out the table names before each measure however this created an error and the calculated table showed no columns.In Tabular Editor create a new calculated table.Another benefit worth mentioning is the tabular structure. Open your local model.bim (or connect directly to your model in a dev environment) A Practical Guide to Self-Service Data Analytics with Excel 2016 and Power BI Desktop Dan Clark.It is worth noting that the feature is still in preview so do use with caution if deploying to enterprise models. ![]() So we’ll click on Browse (1), then on Browse again at the bottom (2), then we’ll go to Program Files > Tabular Editor 3 (3), select TOMWrapper.dll file (4), click Add (5), select it from the list if necessary (6), and click OK (7). What follows is a brief summary of the latter using tabular editor. Now we’ll need to tell Visual Studio where the TOMWrapper.dll is. Therefore to make use of the new feature the choice was either to use a composite model over direct query or to create the field parameter table in Tabular Editor. My organisations main models however are deployed straight from Tabular Editor via the XMLA end point. I’d highly recommend watching Wyn Hopkins: Field Parameters in Power BI giving a brief introduction. The May 2022 release of Power BI brought an exciting feature that greatly enables self service BI.
