Provision to change data type of Calculated Columns

It was noticed that in some scenarios, calculated columns created with 2 measures resulted in an attribute column. No provision was found to be able to convert this to a Measure to be used in the analysis. It would greatly help to have this capability added, to bridge the gap.

+1. Truly needed feature.

Forcing the calc to treat as measure might help. Eg: sum(0) + <my calc>. Using a aggregate function wrapping for the calc will treat it as a measure in most cases.

@Avinash Krishnaram-Oracle Thanks for sharing this work around, Avinash. Until we have the capability added, this sure can help in the applicable scenarios.
