Anonymous Unfortunately you have to do this in PowerPivot and then import to PBI
the feature is described here => https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-desktop-import-and-display-kpis/
So ANYONE who wants to be able to create the KPIs inside PBI
Please Vote here

I tried the approach mentioned in the link, but I am not able to see the option Preview Features > Use KPIs from Power Pivot or SSAS Tabular in the Option and Setting tab. Is thia preview feature no longer available?

Anonymous It seems this feature has been enabled by default in the latest PBI - so don't worry it will work!
However don't forget you still have to create the KPIs in Excel PowerPivot and then import into PBI

Hi Sean,

When I import to PBI desktop, the kpi (or the pivotpivot table) is not found. But when I import to PowerBI onilne, the kpi is there.May I know how to correct this?
Many thanks.

Are you using the latest version of the PBI Desktop?
2.34.4372.501 64-bit (April 2016)
If not you may have to turn on the Preview Features (see Vanessa's post and picture on Page 1)

Hi, I'm trying to create traffic light indicator and I have data model already created using Powerviot.
After created data model using Powerviot, I have created KPI spreadsheet and this is loaded to PowerBI.
However, when I create table using data source loaded, it does not show traffic light indicator but showing "-1" or "1" value instead.
Can anyone let me know how should I go about this?
Thanks in advance!
