Pbix report under DirectQuery mode - Questions & need help for solutions

[EZV12]

Hello Everybody,

I have some problems in builing pbix report under DQ mode. As tables of data are hidden, I cannot creat fusions, neither add tables or columns...

Here is the link https://1drv.ms/u/s!AnbNXrfr-X8jdCh4I-viYzEgvpw?e=kGjuRO for a sample file pbix. I created it by entering the data manually, but the real report is under DQ mode. It would be great if you may help me to figure out some DAX formulas.

Here below please some images in which I explained my problems and asked questions:

Many thanks in advance for your kind help!

Best regards

Rachel

Hey @EZV12 ,

why do you want to combine the companies and the plants? I think you can do all the analysis when they are in different dimensional tables.

Then you don't do a relationship between the two fact tables KPI data and KPI Target, you connect them with the dimensional tables, like that:

Relationships are one of the basics of Power BI / DAX. You should take a time block and really try to understand them. I would recommend to start with the following articles:

Model relationships in Power BI Desktop - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

Relationships in Power BI and Tabular models - SQLBI

If you need any help please let me know.

If I answered your question I would be happy if you could mark my post as a solution ✔️ and give it a thumbs up 👍
