🥲🥲 literally i have tear in my eyes...it's been two year as i had lost in power bi and whenever i go to interview they ask have you done any project? also ask about SQL connectivity with BI .....now i just see your videos it's new hope for me !! ☺ we should never give up .. please upload such kind of videos more many thanks to you brother!
This is truly the best comment ever! I'm glad it was helpful. Check out he other videos in the playlist. Also share with anyone you think it will help.
This is phenomenal. I am an experienced Data Analyst and just clicked through some of the video, but the learning here is invaluable for people wanting to break into the field. I use Tableau in my job and some Power BI, so even I'm learning some new things. Thanks!
Oh my goodness. This is gold. I am a current computer science major who recently figured out I am infatuated by data. I have been trying to figure out exactly how to start my journey to be becoming a data engineer or at least get close to the field. And you my good sir have given me that and so much more. Thank you so much and continue making awesome Informative content.
This is super good content! I'm a BI Analyst myself and when I was learning to be an analyst, I could not find anything like what you just did in this video.
Hey, I just wanted to let you know that I found out about your channel tonight and it is amazing. There are many great data-related channels on TH-cam, but yours is pure gold. I would say this is the most practical content I have seen so far. One tip would be to switch to a better microphone because at some points, the audio quality is not great.
fantastic work , but the profit margin you calculated is wrong we should use : Profit Margin = profit / revenue so how you subtract the profit again from the revenue and thanks.
I want to say thanks a lot for your video. I decided to switch my career to be a data analyst/business analyst and started the journey a few weeks ago. After looking at other people's CV & portfolios, who switched careers, I wanted to start building some projects before I apply to any data analyst roles. Then I found this video and started to follow along two days ago. Given the limited time I have, because I also have a corporate job, I've finished the process today and feel like I've achieved something meaningful. Thanks again and please keep sharing. Best regards.
Hii I wanted to wish you the best in your career shift. I know its a great idea because the demand for good analyst is growing. I am really happy my video help you. Please share it with anyone who needs help.
I love all your vudeos i just finished your first two Data Analyst Portfolio projects and i can't wait to do the third. That would make it my fourth data analyst portfolio project
Genius.... thank you so much for this projects using every tool needed for data analysis. Just know I am always waiting for the next project... seen you uploaded more. Also... if I analyze your youtube data... your viewers want more of this projects. More suggestions maybe you covered in the next projects but let me write so you keep in mind.... include data from excel that need cleaning eg duplicates, null etc, data with pivot tables and relations from excel, form and analyse relations in sql and boom to dashboards.... Thank you so much.
Great comment. I will definitely continue to build more projects like this. Also check out my Python video on Data Cleaning th-cam.com/video/w3jQyl8ojJA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=_abWvfyChoiAGPax
Thank You For this video, As a Beginner in Data Analytics it was extreemly helpful for me, got the understanding of how a Data analytics process would be done in a company.
Very helpful video for beginners. Please upload more videos like this which will help beginners to step into data analyst job. Thanks for your valuable content
Great video i love it! One thing if the price is per rider the cost should be per rider as well on the revenue. Minute 22:21. Thank you so much for the video
I have been looking for this type of Video. Thank you for your work and sharing your knowledge! i am new to The Data Analyst World so this is really great for me. Even in my College They did not teach me like this.
@@absentdata Thank you again really valuable. But I wish your Audio Quality was little better i had hard time listening to what you were saying. But the video Quality is really good.
The measure for the profit margin should be calculated as : Measure(Profit Margin) = (sum(Query 1[revenue])- sum(Query 1[profit]))/sum(Query1[revenue]). This is because the definition of profit margin is that it is the difference between total revenue and profit all divided by total revenue, to understand what part of total revenue is real profit. We shouldn't divide it by profit itself. Definition of revenue: Total money that you get from sales. Definition of profit: Total money from sales after you have subtracted all business expenses(rent, electricity bills, gas, debt payments). Thank you for the helpful tutorial.
I had some problems with different values than yours when it came to the dashboard, I don't know what happened, for example: Number of riders on yours was 3M while on mine it was 5M, along with several other different values. I did everything like you from the beginning, but I downloaded the database via csv on kaggle, but I believe that wasn't what made this happen. Thanks for this video, i made my first Data Analyst project for my portfolio. Now I will search a project realized in Python and other in Excel for fill my Portfolio moreover.
9:00 i did exactly like you but in results give me error about column "atemp" i fixed this problem by allow nulls but again give me warning about 6 data deleted.
Another masterpiece, you always deliver great content. Question, should profit margin be revenue - cogs which gives gross profit or profit margin, then divide gross profit by revenue to get profit margin%? Thank you.
This is a great video from beginning to end. Using the new card visual as a placeholder for the sections is a great idea. But I just wonder whether this will slow down the visualization. Can we just use the Shape for the section background?
There shouldn't be any performance issue if the value is turned off. If you did have a value there as long as it's not a calculated value that was created with DAX, no additional resources are needed. So either way no dlowdown
Hi Gaelim, I hope this message finds you well. I’m currently transitioning from an Electrical Engineering background into Data Analytics, and I must say, your videos have been incredibly helpful in providing clarity on where and how to begin this journey. I've watched several of your tutorials, particularly those on becoming a Data Analyst, and they’ve been very insightful. I’m based in Australia, and I’m starting with SQL Server and Power BI, aiming to master these tools as they are widely used in the majority of companies here. Would you recommend any other key skills or tools that would be valuable for me to focus on at this stage? Thank you for your time and great content.
Hi, thank you for sharing this cool project! I use Mac M1 and have to download Azure data studio instead. Azure couldn't map the dteday column as datetime format and the files couldn't be imported. I had to format that column as string instead and it went through fine. I am wondering if there's any other way to import the file with the dteday properly imported as datetime with Azure?
my Price column and my COGS column from cost_table is not a float value its 399 & 124 rather than 3.99 and 1.24 what can i do to fix it. Appears at minute 20:29. I couldn't fix it...

Keep getting the error "Operand type clash: time is incompatible with float" when I add the profit query (riders*price -COGS as profit) -- Any idea what's causing this? My code looks just like yours

Hi, thanks a lot for the video. i'm having some issue to calculate the revenue. everytime I try I have this message "Operand data type nvarchar is invalid for multiply operator" . i try to change the data type even if I can see number in the price riders column but then the price column is not regnized. Do you have an idea ? thank you
Great presentation. I have stuck with SUM issue. When I perform Measure = (SUM(Query1[revenue]-SUM(Query1[profit])/SUM(Query1[profit] function, the error pops up "The SUM function only accepts a column reference as an argument." Ive tried different approaches without success. Also, there is a message "cannot find parameter [revenue] Please help.
1) 12:10 how are we able to see that the query has gotten larger? 2) would you advise that I complete this project & use it for my GitHub that's linked to my resume?
1. Do you mean the data from the query. You can look at the rows of data brought in from the query over time. if more data is added the size of the data will change. 2. Its always good to have dashboards to present and portfolio and walk the interviewer through the data pipeline, transformation and visualization steps.
To make the colum tools appear in the top menu, you just need to click on a column in your table, and the colum tools menu will appear in the top ribbon.
When I go to import the data, my data type for dteday is showing up as nvarchar, and when I change it to datetime, my import fails every time. Any ideas?
Thank you for this video I love it. but when I try to import data, the columns in the temp and atemp sections don't have dots (.) why? even though the data type is already float. Please reply
Hi, not sure if I'm the only one running into this issue but for both the bike share tables the date format changes from cell A288 downwards and excel refuses to recognize it as a date. Any help with that would be appreciated.
@@absentdata let me clarify. I know they are CSVs. I opened them in Excel to inspect the data. Uploaded them into Power BI using MySQL and I noticed an error with the date format. So went back into the file to try and figure out what's wrong. That's when I noticed the difference.
I was having a similar issue, but just click on the link to open the files & download them somewhere on your pc w/o changing the format...I was thrown off because the files in the video are Excel but the files in the link are csv. On another note, you can convert csv files to excel, but that's not req'd for this step. I hope I made sense.
Very important is that the per rider you have to subtract the COGS. in your video you made to much profit that makes no senes everey unit needs the same amount of COGS. (riders * price -(COGS * riders))/ 100 as profit
Thank you for this video, it is really helpful. A quick question, how did you take out the highlight 'invalid object name bike_share_yr_1' and for the cost_table?
Hello, during this project I am facing an issue to load data into power bi from sql server. I tried several ways to resolve it but unable to solve. error occurs when I load the data into power bi in the last tab by selecting "Use Current credentials" after this step the error message is " We couldn't authenticate with the credentials provided. Please try again." IF anyone can help me with this it will be very helpful for me.
@@mrbartuss1 please you will get same result if you calculate the profit by subtracting value of revenue from the COGS column. alternatively in the video he made it explicit by using the riders * price which will give you same value as the Revenue. so it's same thing.
While that can be som data cleaning done tgrough SQL. It's better to have this done prior to loading in a database or do the cleaning after you extract the data from the database
Hello, great content, very educational. But, I have a question: Why would you calculate the profit margin as "( revenue - profit) / revenue" when in SQL you already did "revenue(riders*price) - COGS(riders*COGS)" and named it as "profit". It doesn't make sense to me to deduct the profit from the revenue and then divide it with the revenue. Shouldn't it be " profit/revenue " to get the profit margin? Thank you.
Most data does not exist in Excel sheets. Most data is going to be in SQL databases. So as an analyst you need to know how to extract data from databases.
Starting to love the content, but I'm facing difficulty inserting the XML file to my SQL database. It keeps giving No null error fr atemp, and temp column
Good video but where is the need to bring in MySQL here, as you are not doing any transaction here. All excel files like bikeshare and others could have been straightaway imported into power BI, Tables could be merged in power query and links between tables could have been established in data model option
It really depends on the data source. So data can be extract from a sales platform that is dirty and needs cleaning. However, usually when data is in a database. It has undergone some ETL which may fix many cleaning issues.

Yes, that's fine way to do it.
@@absentdata okay, thank you!!
Great content. Just a newbie question, may I ask why did you create database from SQL when you can just get the data from excel to PBI?
Most data does not exist in Excel sheets. Most data is going to be in SQL databases. So as an analyst you need to know how to extract data from databases.
@@absentdata and I need hands on experience with it, so this project is EXACTLY what I need....THANK YOU A MILLION TIMES OVER!!!!!!
Awesome Visualization, please are u on LinkedIn?

I had trouble getting the data into SQL Server. It would not allow the date/time2 format for the dteday column. Did anyone else experiance this?
Maybe turn of auto or rich data type feature
i am facing the same issue. Any luck solving it?
Starting to love the content, but I'm facing difficulty inserting the XML file to my SQL database. It keeps giving No null error fr atemp, and temp column
There is no part in the video that has XML files
@@absentdata I have resolved the issue, thanks
Awesome!
I need the link of your giphy animation...
Good video but where is the need to bring in MySQL here, as you are not doing any transaction here. All excel files like bikeshare and others could have been straightaway imported into power BI, Tables could be merged in power query and links between tables could have been established in data model option
Most data lives in databases. It's important as an analyst to be able to use SQL to extract data
True

Hi sir, just a quick question. The .csv files are normally extracted from a sales system or such. Do we need to clean the data in Excel again or no?
It really depends on the data source. So data can be extract from a sales platform that is dirty and needs cleaning. However, usually when data is in a database. It has undergone some ETL which may fix many cleaning issues.
Does anyone here provide 1:1 powerbi mentoring? At a decent price
Where could get the excel file your using
