 |Dimension Tables  | Supportive Descriptive Data  | Create dimension tables that contain the descriptive attributes related to the quantitative measures in fact tables.  | "Product_Details", "Customer_Information".  |
 |Hierarchies  | Logical Groupings  | Establish clear hierarchies within the data, especially for dimension tables that could be used to drill down in reports.  | A "Time" hierarchy that breaks down from "Year" to "Quarter" to "Month" to "Day".  |
 |Column Names  | Unambiguous Labels  | Column names should be unambiguous and self-explanatory, avoiding the use of IDs or codes that require further lookup without context.  | Use "Product_Name" instead of "ProdID".  |
-|Column Data Types  | Correct and Consistent  | Apply correct and consistent data types for columns across all tables to ensure that measures calculate correctly and to enable proper sorting and filtering.  | Ensure numeric columns used in calculations are not set as text data types.  |
+|Column Data Types  | Correct and Consistent  | Apply correct and consistent data types for columns across all tables to ensure that measures calculate correctly and to enable proper sorting and filtering.  | Ensure numeric columns used in calculations aren't set as text data types.  |
 |Relationship Types  | Clearly Specified  | To ensure accurate report generation, clearly specify the nature of relationships (active or inactive) and their cardinality.  | Mark whether a relationship is "One-to-One", "One-to-Many", or "Many-to-Many".  |
 |Data Consistency  | Standardized Values  | Maintain standardized values within columns to ensure consistency in filters and reporting.  | If you have a "Status" column, consistently use "Open", "Closed", "Pending", etc.  |
 |Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)  | Predefined and Relevant  | Establish a set of KPIs that are relevant to the business context and are commonly used in reports.  | "Return on Investment (ROI)", "Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC)", "Lifetime Value (LTV)".  |
-|Refresh Schedules  | Transparent and Scheduled  | Clearly communicate the refresh schedules of the data to ensure users understand the timeliness of the data they are analyzing.  | Indicate if the data is real-time, daily, weekly, etc.  |

 |Security  | Role-Level Definitions  | Define security roles for different levels of data access if there are sensitive elements that not all users should see.  | Sales team members can see sales data but not HR data.  |
 |Metadata  | Documentation of Structure  | Document the structure of the data model, including tables, columns, relationships, and measures, for reference.  | A data dictionary or model diagram provided as a reference.  |
 
+The following table lists additional criteria to help you create accurate [DAX queries with Copilot](/dax/dax-copilot). These items are recommendations that can help in generating accurate DAX queries.

+|Element  | Consideration  | Description  | Example  |
+|---------|---------|---------|-----|
+|Measures, tables, and columns  | Descriptions  | Include what it is and how you intend each element to be used in the description property. Note: Only first 200 characters are used.  | [YOY Sales] description could be "Year-over-year (YOY) difference in Orders. Use with the 'Date'[Year] column to show by years other than the latest year. Partial years will compare to same period of prior year." |
+|Calculation groups | Descriptions | Calculation items aren't included in the model metadata. Use the description of the calculation group column to list and explain the use of the calculation items. Note: Only first 200 characters are used. | For example, the [Time intelligence sample](/analysis-services/tabular-models/calculation-groups?view=asallproducts-allversions#time-intelligence-example) calculation group column could have this description: "Use with measures & date table for Current: current value, MTD: month to date, QTD: quarter to date, YTD: year to date, PY: prior year, PY MTD, PY QTD, YOY: year over year change, YOY%: YOY as a %" and on a table with measures could expand on the usage a description such as "Measures are used to aggregate data. These measures can be shown as year-over-year by using this syntax CALCULATE([Measure Name], 'Time intelligence'[Time calculation] = "YOY")" |
