Hi @PD_ASC ,

 

If the information is stored in database, you could connect it with Direct Query mode. It will connect directly to the data source using DirectQuery.  And publishing the report to Power BI Service to monitor it in time. 

 

Use DirectQuery in Power BI Desktop

The information you have provided is not making the problem clear to me. Can you please explain with an example.
Can you share sample data and sample output in table format? Or a sample pbix after removing sensitive data.
Appreciate your Kudos.
