What if you don’t want to install another tool just to recalculate your model? You can do it from DAX Studio! I’d guess that there are a lot of Power BI people who use DAX Studio but not SSMS.About a month ago I presented on the new Tabular model at one of our customers. This will recalculate your model, and you’ll be able to use your calculated objects. Select Process Recalc from the Mode drop-down list.Right-click a dataset and select Process Database.One way of doing it is to use SQL Server Management Studio: If you can’t or don’t want to refresh your dataset in Power BI service, you can recalculate it. The error message shown when you try to use a newly created calculated table (in the beginning of this blog post) at least says what needs to be done □ Recalculating your model Not the most useful error message, I might quickly add. Slice on calculation group column ‘My Calc Group' refers to non-existing calculation item.What does it mean? It means our calculation group isn’t ready to be used. The implication of it is if you create a calculated object–a calculation group, for example–you won’t be able to use it immediately in a report, and you’ll get the following error: Tabular Editor only deploys metadata, and it doesn’t process anything. The situation is different with calculated columns, calculated tables, and calculation groups. This is not an issue when you only edit measures, because measures aren’t calculated, and you can use them right after you save your changes. When you’re editing a Power BI dataset by using an external tool, like Tabular Editor, your model is not automatically recalculated every time you make a change to it. So why am I so pedantic about it? Editing Power BI datasets by using external tools Measures are different from columns and tables: in Power BI Desktop, you don’t see what they return until you use them in a visual, and they don’t need to be calculated in advance, hence they’re measures, not calculated measures.
