    To create a calculated measure, open the IDT and select the “Calculated Measure” option from the “Create” menu. Select the existing measures that you want to combine and enter the calculation formula. Once you have saved the calculated measure, it will be available for use in reports and dashboards. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When creating a calculated measure, make sure to use descriptive names so that it is easy to identify in reports and dashboards. Additionally, you can use variables in your calculation formula to make it easier to modify the formula in the future.
