Smart discover - allow selecting custom calculation

If I create an IMDB model, I can't have an aggregated average as an intrinsic measure.

If I want a measure called "avg price" it has to be a calculated measure.

Now if a user wants to add the "avg price" in a smart discover - it's not available. It should be.

    There is an average aggregation type in the modeling layer. Right click on the measure to change it.

      A. Average aggregation will not give the average price - I have to divide the total income by the quantity.

      B. The point of this feature request was to enable adding calculations in the smart discover, which is currently not an option.

    If you want a semantic average, you need to build a semantic calc (quick calc's in Discover or Formulate). The model tools are for designing granular calc's only. 

    We are not adding calculation options to smart discovery. Its aimed at simpler use cases.
