Do you use the Common Data Model metamodel?

HI 

I have tried to get some help on the use of Common Data Model. But i am getting the feeling that not many PowerBI users are utilizing the Common Data Model metamodelsystem. Is that correct?

 

Thanks

Hi @KNO ,

It depends on what requirements you need to achieve and the functions of the Common Data Model whether or not to use Common Data Model. With Common Data Model, you can structure your data to represent concepts and activities that are commonly used and well understood. You can query and analyze that data, reuse it, and interoperate with other businesses and apps that use the same format. Common data model can be used to define thousands of entities such as Customer, Product, Opportunity, Sale, Purchase Order, etc. as well as identifying data for regulatory and compliance purposes. You can review the content in the links below to get more information about Common Data Model.
