    Hi Anonymous,

     

    As you mentioned each report belongs to different datasets and their owners are also different here are the workarounds which may work for your requirements.

    1. You can avoid using DAX by leveraging SQL queries or Direct Query mode. If your datasets are stored in SQL or another common database. Then, write reusable SQL queries or views to dynamically calculate key performance indicators (KPIs). Use Direct Query mode in Power BI to connect directly to the database.
    2.  Paginated Reports enable dynamic data retrieval from multiple datasets. To create         these reports, first install Power BI Report Builder. Then, connect directly to multiple   datasets within the report builder. Use parameters to dynamically fetch key   performance indicators (KPIs) from these datasets.
