i am working on estimating the cost of purchasing power bi report server, i am unable to find pricing for SQL Server 2025 enterprise edition from microsoft so i have done some calculation for SQL Server 2022 based on below documentation https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/sql-server/sql-server-2022-pricing One time cost of SQL Server 2022 Enterise Edition is $15,123 considering 5 developers , the price is $70 per month ($14 pro license per month x 5 ) considering 295 viewers, the price is $0 If I consider one server for Dev & Test environment and 1 for Prod then how many cores I would need for DEV/TEST and for PROD server? Does above cost calculation for enterprise edition for SQL Server 2022 is correct or i am missing something? As per my understanding buying SQL Sever 2022 license would be costlier than F64 capacity which cost $5,002.667/month as per https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/details/microsoft-fabric/ Power BI Report Server would be require for atleast one yearSolved590Views0likes5CommentsReport Builder: Power BI measures behave differently in Report Builder Matrix Visualisation
I have to generate a paginated report for a matrix table. I've created dummy data as follows: Table A (storing different hierarchies of fields): Table B (storing comments in concatenated format): The DAX formula I used to allow comments to be shown at specific level: comments_measure = CALCULATE( MAX(comments[comments]), FILTER( comments, comments[selected] = SELECTEDVALUE('fact'[Alphabet])&SELECTEDVALUE('fact'[Food]) )) The results in Power BI looks like this: However when I imported the same measure in Report Builder and created the matrix visual, I get the following results: The comments for Level 1 (Alphabet) are not being reflected correctly. Any idea to get this working correctly?1.2KViews0likes1CommentOptional & Multi-Select Paginated Reports Query Parameters with Analysis Services Data Source
Hello Power BI community! I need help with parameters and paginated reports. I want to generate paginated reports from within Power BI using the Paginated Report Visual as the container. I'm using Analysis Services as a data source and need to employ DAX for the datasource. Since "report filter parameters" are slow, I prefer using "query parameters" for faster performance. My goal is to use Power BI slicers to send multi-select data and optional slicers from the Power BI page. This way, if a user doesn't make a selection, it defaults to "All." I'm struggling to find clear information or tutorials on implementing this technique. If you know of any tutorials creating parameters using DAX, please share. I appreciate any assistance. It seems that while Power BI incorporates SSRS, connecting them via parameters isn't as seamless as expected. Thanks!920Views0likes1CommentNative SQL query for Power BI

When deploying with a paginated report for rules they seem to lack the ability to specify a database server, only a database name. So, is this not supported with Paginated like it is for a standard PBIX report in PBI Desktop? Is there anyway to specify a shared data connection string for all the paginated reports? In SSRS you can make a data connection and put the credentials in that and share it, with each report having their own data set. I don't see a way to do a shared Data Source when using the PBI Paginated report "Power BI Report Builder" tool. What about things like ApplicationIntent:ReadOnly, etc?Solved786Views2likes3Commentspower bi report builder - parameter property - "allow blank value"
Revisting Power BI Report Builder (SSRS in my case) after some years and wondering how the 'Allow blank value ("")' property works in Power BI Report Builder? Had a play with a report I am tasked with fixing but the 'Allow blank value ("")' property does not seem to do anything. The parameters to this paginated report are all multi-value. Values for these parameters are sourced via some with dax querys and some with direct values inputed. I even tried entering a parameter value of "" as seemingly suggested by the ("") suffix to the property label 🙂 with no luck. Any directions or pointers to articles that thoroughly detail its usage would be appreciated. I have tried but can not find as yet a good definitive article. Let alone an article highlighting the effects of combining 'Allow mulitple values' and 'Allow blank value ("")' parameter properties.Solved12KViews0likes4CommentsSlow Query on Gateway but Fast on Database
Hello, Our company has a server dedicated for Power BI On-Premises Data Gateway with 20 vCPU and 64 GB RAM. We have a little problem where Power BI Gateway performs refresh queries very slow especially to Hive tables. There's this one semantic model that queries to the Hive tables, the problem is, when I click refresh on the semantic model, it can take up to 15 minutes with a query limit of 50 rows. But when we check from the Hive side, the query only takes 3 seconds. From the Gateway perspective, the CPU usage never goes above 15% and memory usage rarely goes above 30%. So where is the bottleneck and how do I troubleshoot this? The problem only occurs to Hive. We're not getting these issues with Oracle, PostgreSQL, and MySQL databases.
