SSAS-Hybrid mode.
- 1 year ago
Hi Kakikupart
I would like to sincerely apologize for the solution provided in my earlier below given response. I realized that my reply was not accurate.
Here is the information as follows:1.Understanding Import Mode and Direct Query Mode
- Import Mode: When Direct Query Mode is turned off, the table operates in Import Mode. This means the data is loaded into memory and queried from there.
- Direct Query Mode: When Direct Query Mode is turned on, the table queries data directly from the source.
2.Steps to Configure the Tables:
- INVENTORY Table (Import Mode):
- Select the INVENTORY table in the Model view.
- In the Properties pane, set the Direct Query Mode property to Off.
- This will configure the table to use Import Mode .
- SALES Table (Direct Query Mode):
- Select the SALES table in the Model view.
- In the Properties pane, set the Direct Query Mode property to On.
- This will configure the table to use Direct Query Mode (data is queried directly from the source).
- Save the changes and process the model to reflect the updated configurations.
4.Test in Power BI after deploying, connect to the model and run queries to ensure:
INVENTORY table uses in-memory(Import) data and SALES table fetches data directly from the source.

Thank you for the solution. I’m looking to manage this at the SSAS level since I have existing relationships and DAX measures
