Hi, 

 

Need more insights on how to create a semantic layer, how to connect the semantic layer to make similar reports as it was possible in Business Objects Web Intelligence .

 

Also the Dataflow tab is not visible. How to enable the dataflow access?

Hi @Anonymous,

 

It seems the Power BI Self-Service is the best match. Please refer to introducing-power-bi-data-prep-wtih-dataflows/ and service-dataflows-overview

You can gather many sources together and format them properly. To the end users, the data source is single and the format is the same.
