Power BI Update

Hi Everyone,

 

I am currently running the Power Bi version 2.97.921.0 64-bit (September 2021) and am hoping to update to the new September 2022 version as it gives me access to more features and visuals. However, I am concerned if the new update will cause issues with graphs and measures in the reports that I already built using the Sep 2021 version. Thus, I wanted to connect with you all and know your thoughts on this matter. 

 

Thanks in adavance for your time and input!

 

Regards,

Ash

@Greg_Deckler , Thanks for your note! I am okay with new format pane style. Its just that at work, I have prebuilt BI models that I update everymonth with new raw data and am hesistant that this new upgrade may crash the model. I may be overthinking this. Also, just curious, have you had any such issue with your BI models? Thanks! 🙂

@Ash_9 Generally there are no issues around upgrading besides trying to figure out where they moved your cheese. Format pane is completely different now for example.
