Need help in building Paginated report, data coming from two tables

Hi All,

I am trying to achieve a simliar paginated report like I build in Power BI. As I need the report to be exported to PDF with multiple pages.

 

Power BI report looks like below.

In Paginated report I am unable to bring the relationship though I am using the Power BI dataset as the paginated report dataset.

 

How I Show the PTD Claim in one rows similar like my power BI.

Hi @ashmitp869 ,

 

Consider using PBI Desktop to connect these two semantic models through the DirectQuery to AS feature, then create relationships between the appropriate tables, then publish to the PBI service, and finally use the PBI report builder to connect this semantic model.

 

If you can't create a proper relationship, you can also rewrite the measure to pass the filter for the current row of table1 to the table2, something like this:

Measure = 
// Here I passed [Country] and [Product] from table1 to SUM(‘Table2’[Profit])
VAR __cur_filter1 = SELECTEDVALUE('Table1'[Country]) 
VAR __cur_filter2 = SELECTEDVALUE('Table1'[Product])
VAR __result = CALCULATE(SUM('Table2'[Profit]), 'Table2'[Country]=__cur_filter1 && 'Table2'[Product]=__cur_filter2)
RETURN
__result

It works fine in paginated reports:
