Learning Microsoft Power BI - Creating a DAX Measures Table

The video tutorial explains how to organize DAX calculations in Power BI by creating a DAX measures table. It covers the steps to create the table, move calculations into it, and organize them effectively. The tutorial also demonstrates how to identify virtual calculations and sort them separately from physical data tables. This method helps in managing calculations efficiently within the Power BI data model.
