With the October release of Power BI Desktop, users have the ability to leverage 2 really cool features: Bookmarks and the Selection Pane. With bookmarks, you can create a custom/modified view of your report and save a version of that state, allowing you to go back to that view either through a PowerPoint-like presentation, or […]
This post is a continuation of my last post, PASS Summit 2017 Recap – PreCon Sessions and focuses on days 1-3 of the conference. The next few days at PASS Summit were jam-packed with sessions, key-note speakers, vendors, and networking events. I tried picking the sessions that would give me the most benefit by attending in […]

Mobile Report Publisher is part of the SQL Server 2016 release and provides on-premise mobile reporting functionality to SQL Server Reporting Services. Power BI is a standalone cloud-based service that provides similar mobile reporting […]
SQL Server Mobile Report Publisher does not have an intuitive way for moving a mobile report across servers, and I wasn’t able to find any documentation about this online. So how do you go about doing this? I came across a couple of options while testing different approaches, which are described below. If you have found a […]
I recently ran into a scenario where I developed a Power BI report against a SQL database using a live connection, and later developed a Tabular cube that I wanted to use to replace the SQL data source. As it turns out, replacing one live data source with another is not as straightforward as it […]
Below are some new (maybe old for some of you!) tips & hints that will come in handy when building new Power BI reports: Use the Shift + Arrow Keys to Move Items in Bigger Increments If you’re trying to get the location of a visual just right, and need to use the arrow keys instead […]
