Insert Comments within a visual

Hello Community,

 

I have a visual displaying some financial values values by month, similar to that below. I want the users to be able to add comments to the report. The dataset is large and we don't have the ability to manipulate the source data.  Is there anyway that I can add a column to the visual that can be edited, or add notes to reflect the commentary?

 

Thanks

No, you can do that in the standard Power BI. There are some 3rd party tools that enable you to 'right back' to the model, but I do not know if that is 'comments' from a user. Once deployed to the service, you can have end users/viewers of the reports enter comments, but those are in the service not the model.
