Using a PBI desktop file I am pulling the Salesforce Object Data source (SF reports won't work for this due to 2000 record limit in REST API).
I am using the case object in SF, which has a TON of custom fields our admins felt were required (they weren't) and seperate work queues have seperate KPIs and methodologies for performance. I am doing multiple reports/tables with Salesforce data and have a question on efficiency of the data model.
Option 1:
Pull the case object multiple times in query editor and apply filters to create each data table i need
Option 2:
Pull the case object once, and use the create table DAX to create the individual tables for reports and what not.
They both seem like reasonable approaches with pros/cons but which option will be less intensive, in particular to avoid data refresh (via personal gateway) timeouts?
Obviously test, but my thinking is that Option 2 would be less intensive from a data load stand-point with the trade-off being more calculation in memory and DAX.
