RE: Custom and Named Sets support

Its been around 3 years and still under consideration. Microsoft should realize to achieve more or less same functionality we need to alter our design and to violate certain standards.

RE: Custom and Named Sets support

Definitely need support of Sets and Hierarchical Slicers for PowerBI to be user friendly when connected to cubes.

RE: Custom and Named Sets support

In Tableau it's possible to use 'Named Sets' and to create 'Calculated Members' using MDX. Power Bi was supposed to be better integrated with SSAS then Tableau.

RE: Custom and Named Sets support

Please. It works in Excel so it should at least also work in Power BI.

This is necessary for building reports using a SSAS live connection.
