      <title>Converting a Measure that includes aggregates to a Dimension</title>
      <link>https://community.tableau.com/thread/144283</link>
      <description>&lt;!-- [DocumentBodyStart:c530ac56-3322-4da1-8d34-aab06794c78f] --&gt;&lt;div class="jive-rendered-content"&gt;&lt;p&gt;A calculated field contains aggregates such as SUM and AVG. The calculated field is noted as a measure. However, I want to now be able to use this calculated measure as a dimension.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="min-height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So for instance:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dimensions are:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Company Name&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Postcode&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;etc&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="min-height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Measures are:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Segmentation (calculated field that is built up by using SUM and AVG of other measures)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;etc&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="min-height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If I pull the Company Name to a Row and then the Segmentation Measure, everything is fine.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;However, I now want to remove the Company Name and only leave the Segmentation and show other measures against the Segmentations.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="min-height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I would like to remove the calculations behind the Segmentation Measure and copy that in to a Dimension. Just like you do a Copy and then a Special Paste values only in Excel.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- [DocumentBodyEnd:c530ac56-3322-4da1-8d34-aab06794c78f] --&gt;</description>
