Paginated Report

 Paginated Report


Paginated report gives pixel perfect view of the data, pixel perfect view means we have complete control on how the report render. We can use paginated reports when we expect to print the report on paper or when we want an e-receipt, a purchase order, or an invoice. Paginated reports also render tabular data exceedingly well. We can have customized sort orders, clickable-headers, and URLs in results, which allows for simple integration with custom applications. 

Power BI paginated reports are descendants of SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS). In order to create paginated report we need to download Power BI Report Builder and its required license key.

To download the Power BI Report Builder, login in Power BI Service Click on Three dots at right top, go to the download and select paginated report builder.

Use DAX iterator functions in Power BI Desktop models

Data Analysis Expressions (DAX) include a set of functions known as  iterator functions . Iterator functions enumerate all rows of a given table and evaluate a given expression for each row. They provide you with flexibility and control over how your model calculations will summarize data. Some DAX Functions are Complex summarization 1. SUMX e.g. : 1.  Revenue = SUMX (Sales, Sales[Sales Amount]) 2. Revenue = SUMX (Sales, Sales[Order Quantity] * Sales[Unit Price] * ( 1 - Sales[Unit Price Discount Pct.])) 3. Discount = SUMX ( Sales, Sales[Order Quantity] *( RELATED ('Product'[List Price]) - Sales[Unit Price] ) ) 2. AVERAGEX e.g :1. Revenue Avg = AVERAGEX ( Sales, Sales[Order Quantity] * Sales[Unit Price] * ( 1 - Sales[Unit Price Discount Pct.]) ) 2. Revenue Avg Order = AVERAGEX ( VALUES ('Sales Order'[Sales Order]), [Revenue] ) 3. RANKX The  RANKX  DAX function is a special iterator function you can use to calculate ranks. Its syntax is as follows: RANKX (<...

Modify DAX filter context in Power BI Desktop models

Summary CALCULATE  DAX function to modify filter context in the formulas. The syntax for the CALCULATE function is as follows: CALCULATE (<expression>, [[<filter1>], <filter2>]…) I learned about filter context. And also learned why and how to work with the CALCULATE function to modify filter context by passing in filters. These filters can add or overwrite the filter context, and they can modify filter context when we are passing in special functions like REMOVEFILTERS or KEEPFILTERS. Additionally, I learned that the CALCULATE function can transition row context to filter context, which can be required when we are using measure expressions in calculated columns or iterator functions.
