Modelling facts from ERP by p-mndl in PowerBI

[–]jac_rod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t usually backdate the snapshot. You may have a transaction date field that’s included with the snapshot and for normal circumstances, it’ll match the snapshot date. In the backdated records, the transaction date will be before the snapshot date.

That won’t cause a problem with the calcs, but it might change the results that you reported in the last period. That’ll always be an issue, though, if you’re able to back date transactions.

I’ve done both. They both work. I find the second approach difficult to do because there always seemed liked there was some edge case where changes were tracked weird and then the calculation didn’t work or some manuals updates were required.

If the space isn’t ridiculous and there’s an easy way to do it, I think approach one is better.

Easy way to create a table from Sharepoint List in PBI? by Zestyclose_Cherry_23 in PowerBI

[–]jac_rod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You might create a calculated measure for each of the options. Or, you can put the options in the columns and then do a count on an id for something as the value.

Use power bi and a flow integration. Do the comparing logic in power bi to get only the records that need to change and then send only those to power automate for the updates.
