KPIs historization

Hello,

 

With Power BI, I can calculate sophisticated KPIs from datas without timestamps. Each month, I refresh KPIs but I would like to save them automatically in order to check their evolution from month to month.  

I was almost sure this question had been asked already but I couldn't find topic about it. So I made a simple example :

My problem is to add a row automatically in KPIs history each time datas are refreshed.

 

Hoping it's clear enough. Thank you in advance for any help.

You will need to persist the backing data for the KPIs, or the KPIs themselves in a flat file or database, and then use that as your source in Power BI. Power BI does not have an incremental load feature, so you'll need to assign dates to each "batch", as it were, and then consume those in Power BI.
