I have created "golden" semantic models for different business areas that each have 10+ reports hanging off them. My main concern is that anyone that has access to the workspace could download the semantic model, make unauthorised changes and then republish, therefore breaking downstream reports. Are there access permissions where I can prevent this from happening? Is this a process issue i.e. I just have to trust that my analysts won't do anything monumentally stupid like this? I still need them to be able to live connect to the semantic model to build their own reports. submitted by /u/Par ..read more

The company I work for is currently in the middle of migrating from Great Plains to Business Central. I work in the Finance Department and in charge of all reporting. I’ve been experimenting with the Business Central Connector in PBI Desktop. Even with little records loaded in BC, importing data seems slow. Also, I found I am having trouble getting financial data where an account has two dimensions. Financial records with two dimensions duplicate records and this duplicates the dollar amount. What is Best Practice in extracting data from BC to building BI reports? Does IT need to pull data in ..read more

We are looking at migrating away from SalesForce (licensing costs are too high and usage too low) to Power BI. Is there a good way to do this? The raw data is the important part but if we could keep the reports we've already created, that would be great. submitted by /u/Maradon3305 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I have been trying to display our milestones and roadmap as data on Power BI. I am a premium user in both and have already installed the MS Project for web via PowerApps, I have retrieved the Dataverse link from my current environment, but when I try to connect, it simply says 'refresh failed' and does not offer reasons why. I am wondering if anyone has encountered this issue and found a solution. submitted by /u/KweenPrancine [visit reddit] [comments ..read more
