a few points

  • You cannot use DAX in an OLAP cube
  • Calculated columns in the DSV use SQL syntax, but I never use them I prefer to create a view in my warehouse layer or update my ETL process if I need additional columns.
  • you don't need any other plugins or extensions

Thank you your quick answer to me. Because BU or BA would like to create a new column by themself.  After that, I wil suggest them to create a new calculated column by  ETL or in db. 😂
