In a pivot table in Excel, it is possible to create:

1. Calculated Fields
2. Calculated Items

I have noticed in Power BI, there are:

A. Calculated Columns
B. Calculated Measures

Is 1 equivalent to A and 2 equivalent to B (or perhaps the other way round), or are these totally different things?

Thanks
