copy report page

Hello,

 

I have two identical reports only for different customers (different data sources but identical columns). Now I have created a second page for the "Customer A" report, which I would now like to use 1:1 for the "Customer B" report without having to rebuild everything.

 
Normally I only have to do the following steps:
Click CTRL+A
Click CTRL+C
Click CTRL+V
 
Unfortunately, when I press CTRL+V on the blank page, nothing happens at all?!
 
What can be the reason?
 
Thanks for your help!
 
Best
Anika

Hi,

It doesn't work when page is blank.

First add any empty visual to page.

Then copy and paste.

Finaly delete that added visual in the begining.

If this helped to solve your issue. Please accept this as the solution.

Thank you.

Hi @Anika3186 ,

I'd suggest to create a parameter for your data source, then save your first pbix file as template.

Hi,

Please use Copy in the first source and the paste button in blank page instead of Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V
