Custom sets and named sets should be supported.

RE: Custom and Named Sets support

We need to create some sets in Power BI like in OLAP cube. Please add this feature.

RE: Custom and Named Sets support

I want to display last N months on the basis of current month and want to show month comparison of cube measures in Power BI. I have done it using named set in OLAP cube but named set not supporting in power BI. If power BI support it then it would be very helpful. Please include it.

RE: Custom and Named Sets support

What is the status of Named Sets? Excel supports them, Tableau supports them, why aren't they supported in PowerBI? This is preventing the conversion from Tableau to PowerBI in a number of settings.


Help!

RE: Custom and Named Sets support

No Named sets.... really...? Crystal OLAP Intelligence used to support this 10 years ago!

Simple requirement that should be available in Power BI. Please include as soon as possible.

Very interested in using the named sets existing in SSAS multidimensional cube inside Power BI!

RE: Custom and Named Sets support

Why Power BI is so poor and lacking so many features (no custom measure with live connexion, no named set, ...)

RE: Custom and Named Sets support

My money says this is a passive-aggressive attempt to steer us towards the lousy tabular model swill. Not a chance.
