    📊 WHAT IS POWER BI?
    Power BI is a business analytics tool by Microsoft. It creates a working environment suited for normal users, meaning tasks such as data extraction, cleansing, analysis and storytelling; these are made easily-accessible to citizen-users, and extendable for technical users. At face value it provides visually-stunning, interactive dashboards, but it’s built on top of so much more.

    Took a non credit Power BI course offered by local Uni. Wish they used your video for intro to DAX. They started right in with calculate and time intelligence and I was completely lost. Your video did a much better job of orienting me. Wish I’d watched it before slogging through all the articles and more complicated demos they used. Thank you

      Reports can be moved to different environments by just publishing the .PBI , and workspace can be just replicated and then we can change the server details as per the environment.

    ok, so you calculate your total sales by summing up the price per unit and the total orders ..... and multiplying them... that can not work you know

    Hi Fernan, Just want to ask why the Total Sales is 25K. Having scanned the data, I think the total sales cannot more than $ 1,290 considering the Quantity is 129 and the most expensive Product is $ 10. Please advise.

    • @SolutionsAbroad
      @SolutionsAbroad  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hiya, I think it was definitely a mistake on the calculation on my part!

  • @jomilyethan
    @jomilyethan ปีที่แล้ว

    I am confused. Why do you multiply the sum of the unit price to the sum of the quantity? If the unit price changes for each product, wouldn't you need to multiple each quantity by each unit price. Or at the very least use average rather than sum for the unit price but then it's still not accurate. For example, if I had 2 apples for $1 + 3 bananas for $2. My total fruit sale is (2*1)+(3*2)=$8. But if I just multiply the unit price total and sum total it would not give me the answer at all (2+3)*(1+2)=$15.

    Total sales should be sum(qty * unit price), isn't it?

      @palakvarshney6800 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Nope, it will not work. Use SUMX function in place of sum.......the reason is: you want a row by row calculation or want to use row context while sum is a function which use filter context..

    With the DIVIDE function, you swapped numerator and denominator.

  • @afonsoosorio2099
    @afonsoosorio2099 ปีที่แล้ว

    Sir, The Sum examples you are giving are misleading. You can't just add up different items.
    Total Sales = Sum (Quantity x unit price). First Multiplication by row by row, followed by addition. With your dataset Total Sales Should be 806
    This result t is incorrect : Sum(quantity) * Sum (unit price).
    Sum (column quantity) × Sum (column unit price). This result is meaningless.
    Would you please revise your tutorial.
