          You can break out the test and control into their own measures.



          Create a calculated field like:



          if [group] = 'test' then [measure name] end 


          Repeat for control and all measures you have. Then you can create percent diff calcs as needed.

          • Hi Bernardo, thanks for the answer. Is there any way to do this with some sort of [Column 1] / [Column 2] function rather than creating all of these new measures?
