Title: Inforiver Reporting Matrix custom measure not deleting permanently in Power BI

Hi Team,

I am using the Inforiver Reporting Matrix custom visual in Power BI Desktop.

I created custom measures/formula columns inside the Inforiver visual (not Power BI DAX measures). When I right click the measure header and select “Delete Measure”, the measure gets removed temporarily. However, after saving the PBIX, closing Power BI, and reopening the report, the deleted measure appears again automatically.

I also tried the following:

  • Used “Manage Measures” from the Inforiver ribbon and deleted the measure there

Saved the PBIX after deletion

Closed and reopened Power BI Desktop

Checked that the measure is not present in the normal Power BI fields pane

Removed the measure from the visual wherever possible

Still, the measure keeps returning after reopening the report.

My questions are:

Is there a proper way to permanently delete Inforiver custom measures/formula columns?

Does Inforiver store deleted measures in visual metadata/config/templates internally?

Can templates/config/reuse theme backup restore deleted measures automatically?

Is this expected behavior or a known issue in some Inforiver versions?

Is there any dependency check tool available to identify where the custom measure is still being referenced?

Do we need to reset visual config or recreate the visual completely to permanently remove the measure?

Any guidance would be appreciated.

Thank you.

    Hi @Tarang Karkar 

    With a situation related to the Power BI, I highly recommend reaching out to the Power BI forums - Microsoft Fabric Community

    This space often offers more tailored insights from users who have experience with similar environments, along with practical perspectives based on real-world scenarios and deeper expertise. 
    In addition, since Inforiver is a third party custom visual, you may also consider reaching out to their support forum if it feels relevant. They may be able to provide more specific guidance from their side. 

    Thank you very much for your patience and understanding.
