Sharing Date Table for multiple semantic models in multiple Workspaces (and reports fail)
Currently we didn't really touch Dataflows. We only get Pro license (small SME) and some of the semantic models have "computed tables" and we can't refresh it in Dataflows. (we simply make it in BI Desktop, upload to workspaces, and share report to consumers. We didn't even put consumers in Workspaces, but only start to do so when they sometimes fail to view the report)
Can I just put Date Table in Dataflows, and keeping all our composite models in Power BI Desktop + Online Services?
The Date Table is merely a DAX created table and saved separately in a dataset called "Date Table" in one of the Workspaces.
We used to have individual Date Table for each dataset, but when we try to combine datasets into "Organization datasets" we start to struggle on Date Table.
Thanks again.
No in this case no need for a Dataflow. Since your Date table is a DAX then you can create a pbit power BI template with the dax for date table and provide it to the developers each time they need to build new reports.
