I need to design a report extracted from excel (multiple tabs) and convert it into paginated reports with multiple tabs. I mean there should be one paginated report with multiple tabs to show the data. Any idea if this is doable in power bi report builder.
Thanks,

So, what I am trying to do for a project is create data visualizations in Power BI from Microsoft SharePoint. I used Microsoft Power Automate to create flow which has worked successfully. However, it won't let me load or transform the data that I need to succeed for the project. Also, in the Power Bi workbook it usually shows 3 icons. 1 for Reports, 1 for Table relationships and one for data. the one foe data is missing. But I can see columns and do basic visualizations. But I need to clean the data. How can I transform the data that is real live data?
Hello guys,
I'm connecting Excel to reports (or dataset) of Power BI Services. I can retrieve the data but I still have to "recreate" all the filters I had in Power BI Services (visual filter, report filter or page filter).
Is there a way to keep those filters applied in the report in Excel? that way the business will be able to have the exact same view of PBI when they Analyze in Excel.
Thanks a lot.
I'm generating static HTML reports through Pentaho's integration tool. I'm developing the reports in Pentaho report designer. My reports have several rows of data which when viewed on the BI server can be exported to csv or excel. I'm looking for that same functionality built into my prpt reports using the report designer. My reports will be viewed separately from the BI server but the user must still have the ability to export the results. I have been unsuccessful in finding any resources for Pentaho Report Designer and CTools are not an option.
You can try to use input-excel from Pentaho PDI. You should generate a transformation where you put three steps.
Input Table. Here you put the query.
Copy rows to result. It's a step that you can find on the section Steps > Job > Copy rows to result.
Steps > Output > Microsoft Excel Writter.
I have an Excel report showing a pivot table pulling data from a Data Model on Sharepoint.
I need to filter the report by each "manager" in the company(10 managers in total), so that every manager sees it's own report with it's own data.
Because reports are sharepoint integrated, i cannot play with macros.
What solution would you use to solve this problem?
My idea so far is to create a manager slicer, select manager, hide slicer and save excel. For a total of 10 excel reports. Not sure if that's a decent way tho.
I would also like to avoid creating 10 data models.
Any idea is welcome, thanks.
gg.nz,
I would opt out for using PowerView for creating easy-to-use dashboards. That will allow you to easily manage users as well. Creating 10 duplicated Excel files can be quite time-consuming and updating them manually would be not a smart way to go since you have SharePoint & Office 2013 functionality available.
See this post with detailed instructions how to use PowerView dashboards.
We can implement drilldown report using grouping feature of SSRS 2008, where we just give SSRS filtered data and group expression and rest is done by SSRS, great. Our problem is that we have very large data even after giving filter, so it takes lot of time for SSRS to get data and group it. What can be ideal situation is that we have opportunity to really implement drill down, i mean when user expand group level 1 , group level 2 data is fetched from DB by SSRS and rendered and delivered to client.
We tried with subreports but then again it preloads data. and we have to provide up to 8 levels of drill down.
Any suggestion how to do it in SSRS 2008 is welcomed, any alternative approach suggestion is welcomed as well.
Try using the "Link to Report" feature in one of your columns. This way you can create a summary report, and then fire off another report when the user clicks the columns row data. The drill down report can accept a parameter from the main report to determine what data should display.
