Metrics - cascading scorecards with hierarchies

[hr_tetra]

Hi everyone,

I am setting up a scorecard with metrics. I wondered if the cascading scorecards is available or not. I cannot find them. This article seems to suggest they are available? https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-in/blog/power-bi-goals-is-now-metrics-and-is-moving-to-ga/

Best regards,

Ole

No, metrics are not available in the on-prem Report Server. They are only available in the cloud service.

Thank you for the reply.

So the cascading scorecards described in the article is not available yet, or is that someting completely different? Or only availabel for premium capacities?

They are available in the cloud. It's a major problem with how MS communicates things. In majority of the documentation, they assume everyone would use cloud service and on-premises does not matter. As a result, there is a ton of incorrectly targeted information; "new features" being available on the cloud only (with no appropriate disclaimer) etc etc.

It's as if entire segment of enterprise customers who need more secure and manageable service did not exist. Sad, really.

Aha, thank you for explaining. I haven't even heard about cloud service before...
