Moving Relationships

Not thinking I created different groups of relationships for different dashboards in one layout instead of creating a new layouts for each.  Can you move relationships to different layouts for improved organization? Thanks.

In Power BI, you cannot directly move relationships between different layouts because the relationships are managed centrally in the model itself, not per layout or report page.

 

If your data model is complex and you need different layouts to represent different logical groupings of relationships, consider refining your data model. You might use calculated tables or different measures that are specific to certain aspects of your data. This doesn't change the underlying relationships but allows you to focus on different parts of the model in different report contexts.

That is what I thought.  I was asked to create one dashboard file that would contain multiple dashboards that were previously in SSRS. Most of the dashboards have their own set of relationships since they are unrelated to each other.  I should have put them in their own layout for better organization.  Thanks for your quick response.

Don't forget to accept my answer if it helped you 😄
