Use this interactive demo to learn how to organize data into groups in Power BI's Table view.

Quick summary

Creating groups in Power BI lets you categorize and segment data values directly within the Table view using the Data groups feature under Column tools. This step-by-step process helps analysts build custom data groupings that automatically generate a new group field in your report.


Steps

  1. Open your report and navigate to the Table view.
  2. Under Column tools, select Data groups.
  3. Click New data groups to start creating a new group.
  4. Provide a name for your new group.
  5. Select the value you want to group and click Group.
  6. Once done, click OK to confirm.
  7. A new group field is created automatically in your report.

📌 Why this matters

Creating groups in Power BI is a core data modeling skill that allows analysts and report builders to segment and categorize column values without writing DAX formulas. The Data groups feature in Power BI's Table view enables teams to quickly organize raw data into meaningful categories, making reports easier to read and insights faster to surface. This capability is especially valuable for business users who need to slice data by custom ranges or labels directly within the Power BI Desktop interface. Mastering data grouping helps organizations build more structured, actionable Power BI reports that drive better decision-making.
