Default Aggregation for Calculated Metric Field
16 June, 2015
Do we have an option to define default aggregation for a Report level calculated field.
We have seen performance issues when a user creates a cross tab report with calculated fields and does not aggregate it for huge data
Thanks,

Unfortunately, it isn't possible to set default aggregation to a calculated field at the report level.
You could create the calculated field in the view and apply a default aggregation there. Then, when you use the field in a report, the default aggregation would be applied:

Apologies if this isn't quite the information you were hoping for. Please feel free to let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
