CURRENCY CONVERSION DASHBOARD

This is my submission to EDNA Powerbi Challenge 9.

 

The main challenge is to create a conversion model with 3 reporting currencies. I used Google sheets to get the daily fx rates with  =GOOGLEFINANCE("Currency:USDGBP", "price", DATE(YYYY,MM,DD), DATE(YYYY,MM,DD).

 

This dashboard displays key metrics like Sales, Cost and Profit of a fictional recyle company. My main goal is to find loss making attributes in the dataset.

 

Main requirement is to produce a report from the data to give the user the ability to select a currency and see the associated sales and cost. I also used tooltips to provide additional insight. Hardest part is to calculate the profitability, Sales & Cost as we have multiple currencies involved in the business.

 

I have also attached the working PBIX file. Please let me know your view, feedbacks and suggestions in the comments below.

 

If you liked my DASHBOARD please give it a thumbs up and share it. #CURRENCY_CONVERSION_DASHBOARD.

    This is great Ali_India ! I didn't know you could get the exchange rates so easily in google sheets, I'll admit my method was much more brute force :).
