Can I Create Variables in Beast Mode?
I'm trying to create a variable that I can reference a beast mode calculation, but it keeps on telling me "This calculation contained a syntax error".
Is it not possible to create variables in Beast Mode? Or am I just messing up the syntax?
I've tried:
set @month=1
set @month:=1
select @month=1
select @month:=1
But none of them work.
This is the first line of my beast mode calculation, and it's followed by a CASE statement.
Thanks in advance!

You can create a first Beastmode with a case statement but if you want to call it in other calculation, you will have to use the actual formula first created, otherwise it will give you a syntax error.Domo Arigato!

Let's move to PowerBI where DAX easily allows you to create variables and use custom formulas inside custom formulas.. food for thought
