Define Profiles

One of the queries that ask me many time is about problems that have many organizations and that consist in generate a report (sales, marketing, finance) but which claim that users who belong to a certain department, zone, region category assigned permissions only to view information about a target zone.

This is the case, for example, sales representatives can only view sales in the area to which they were assigned. This is the case that Marketing Managers must have their focus on a particular region, or in certain categories of products which are promoting.

Let’s step through an example where this profiling is defined from Power BI Desktop configuration, to implementation live in an example once published the report in Power BI Web.
