In Power Pivot, you can add new data to a table by creating a calculated column. The new column can then be used in PivotTables, PivotCharts, and reports just like any other column. Calculated columns require you enter a DAX formula.

DAX formulas can use the full power of the model you already have, including relationships between different tables that already exist.
