Dynamic data source on report

‎05-05-2017 04:11 PM

Imagine I have monthly tables with data i'm interested in showing on a report.

 

Can I create a month slicer to change the data source to the corresponding monthly table and automatically update the whole report based on the user selection?

 

Or should I just append all the tables into 1? The issue is that every table averages ~700K rows, what's the row limit on Power BI?

In general you should append them all into a single table. Power BI can handle millions of rows of data, it really depends on the amount of data and how much it can be compressed.
