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.

You can now create one report with multiple datasets through DirectQuery (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/connect-data/desktop-directquery-datasets-azure-analysis-services). If you are having trouble setting up DirectQuery (ex. getting the "The connect live option for this file is disabled" error), make sure this is enabled below.
