Python and Power BI

Anonymous — Wed, 03 Jul 2024 06:57:58 GMT

I will transform invoice data inside powerBI to then analyze this. The invoices have several sections to show where the sums in the total amount come from. When I try to retrieve the invoice data, powerBI only manages to retrieve the bottom line with the KID number, but not the total amount or the various subtotals. My idea was to use python to clean up the invoice and create a format that powerBI can read, so that all the data comes with it. But here I need your help, how do I do this? Since I am a summer student in a company, I have limited access and am unable to connect vscode to powerBI. How should I transform the documents?

Hi @Anonymous ,

You can perform data cleansing and perform advanced data shaping and analysis on a dataset using Python directly from within the Power Query editor in Power BI Desktop.

For example:

import pandas as pd completedData = dataset.fillna(method='backfill', inplace=False) dataset["completedValues"] = completedData["SMI missing values"]

You can find the procedure and related restrictions in the official documentation below, hopefully it will help you:
