  • This article explains how the context transition interacts with the filter arguments of a CALCULATE function in DAX. This is important in order to avoid unexpected results with complex calculations made in filter arguments.  Read more

  • This article describes a counterintuitive behavior of BLANK in DAX measures affecting Power BI, Analysis Services, and Power Pivot. That behavior could cause mistakes in a report using alternate expressions of the same calculation. Indeed, these expressions are not equivalent…  Read more

  • This article describes how to extract raw data stored in the Tabular engine, used by Analysis Service Tabular, Power BI, and Power Pivot.  Read more

  • This article explains how to use KEEPFILTERS to intersect instead of overriding an existing filter context in DAX, simplifying the code and improving performance.  Read more

  • A data model for DAX has three numeric data types: integer, floating point, and fixed decimal number. This article describes them and explains why the fixed decimal number should be used instead of the floating point in most scenarios.  Read more

  • DAX is a functional language that does not allow you to create functions. However, if you need to pass a parameter to an algorithm, you can use a measure passing a value through a filter argument in CALCULATE, as described…  Read more
