    Hi DanUlrich

     

    In Power Bi service, you can create multi reports by the same dataset, However you cannot create one report by using different dataset. One way to work around, creating dashboard could combine different visuals from different reports. Also you can connect to all the data sources of different datasets and import the data by Power BI desktop, then you can use all the data.

Dashboard formatting options are very minimal and resolution on different laptops are causing it - confusing to users. 

 

Going back from Dashboard to report and navigating back to Report - that UI isn't intuitive as well.

 

Back button is all the way on bottom left corner of screen - hence, on different screen resolution laptop , it gets hidden. Kind of hard to explain this to business users. 

 

Hopefully Power BI improves the dashboard features and functionality!
