Persistent Variable

Hi All,

 

Is there any way we can create a persistant variable OR add or modify data in a table using DAX or any other method?

 

Thanks

Siju

Hi,

 

Writeback to Tabluar with both Import mode and Direct query is fully supported with Visual Planning from Power ON. There is a great video here to get you started. http://poweronbi.com/powerbi-visual-planning/

 

You can also load data from Power BI to SQL with their solutions: http://poweronbi.com/2017/06/power-update-from-power-bi-desktop-to-sql-server

 

Power ON also has a Table Editor that lets you edit SQL Tables in Power BI Service directly. http://poweronbi.com/visual-table-editor/

 

Contact info is feedback@poweronbi.com

 

Visual Planner turns Power BI into a fully fledged Goal Seek and Planning, Budgeting and Forecasting solution.

 

Per Solli

You can create a persistent variable inside a measure (persistent constant actually).  You can't change values in a table.  It was announced at The Microsoft Data Insights Summit that writeback is coming soon.

Is it possible to share some more details on how to create a persistent constant inside a measure?
