I'm supposed to develop some Power BI reports with data from a data model that I haven't seen yet. I've been told the data model will be available soon and have been asked to evaluate the data model (once it's made available) for any issues/conflicts it will provide with mock ups I've been provided.
My question is, what do I need to look for (look out for) in the data model? I want to prevent giving an O.K. to the data model and later finding out that there are problems that will prevent me building a useful report.
Thanks!
