Where should the dimension be placed when using the INCLUDE Level of Detail (LOD) calculation?

When using the INCLUDE Level of Detail (LOD) calculation, the dimension should be placed outside of the view. The purpose of the INCLUDE LOD calculation is to calculate a value at a more granular level than what is currently being displayed in the visualization. By placing the dimension outside of the view, the calculation can incorporate additional detail that is not immediately visible in the aggregated view.

This approach allows you to leverage dimensions that enhance the granularity of the data being analyzed without having to display those dimensions directly in the visualization. Therefore, using an INCLUDE LOD calculation can provide insights by considering more detail in the background, while still maintaining a more summarized view in the foreground.

In contrast, if a dimension were included in the view or on the Marks card, it could affect the aggregation level and potentially alter the intended insight from the calculation. This is why the correct placement for the dimension when using INCLUDE LOD is outside the view.
