PowerPivot KPIs
Hi guys, It seems that the PowerPivot KPIs are not supported in the PowerBI designer/desktop. When an Excel file with KPIs is uploaded in PowerBI, it is well visualized in PowerBI mobile, however...
You can connect to Excel instead of importing it. WHen you do that, you can render the workbook in full fidelity including your KPIs.
The service does not yet render Excel in high fidelity for me as well. However, Microsoft did go on record that this feature is coming and at some point we will be able to pin Excel charts to dashboards the same way we can Power View charts. (Although I don’t know if Desktop/Service charts can still be technically called Power View or whether there is a new name for this visualization technology)
Today is now September 20, 2015 - almost 2 moths after launch - any updates to both full fidelity rendering of Excel and KPIs?
