Custom sets and named sets should be supported.

Thanks for the suggestion! We'll consider it along with the others here and prioritize it based on the votes. If you want to help raise the priority, keep voting!

RE: Custom and Named Sets support

Please can this be prioritized. We can do this in other cube browsers and as such is preventing us from moving to Power BI.

3 years and still waiting. This is very important. Without this functionality I've had to duplicate (or triplicate) calculations in the SSAS Cube which is far from ideal.

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

Named Sets is really necessary feature to use Power BI with SSAS, please add this feature asap.

RE: Custom and Named Sets support

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