Calc Dependency#

Bases: SsasReadonlyRecord

Calculation Dependency.

Represents a dependency between two DAX calculations in the model. This is recursive, so it connects non-direct dependencies. For instance, if we have three measures (A -> B -> C) there will be a dependency record between A and C. This entity is calculated, rather than being "real" like the other entities.
