You can add a custom column either in Power Query

Hi @ClaudioL ,

You could create columns using the ways that Paul suggested.

The option of Quick Measure is used for creating measures. They do not store their values directly in data model. And they don't use any RAM for storage purpose. Calculated columns do. You could reference the blogs to learn more.

And please take a look at the documents about how to create columns in Power BI. Hope they can help you.
