I have a report in the Power BI desktop that shows the total value of our inventory. The report refreshes nightly and the data comes from an SQL table.
This data is always a snapshot- there is not table that stores historical inventory data. I would like to log the results from the report each night into a new table and then use that table to show a change in inventory trend.
I have looked at the inventory examples with DAX but haven't been able to make anything work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Power BI is a reporting data base, not a data storage tool. You should store the historical data in SQL Server and load it from there
