Budgeting with Power BI

Budgeting is one of the most challenging scenarios in the Power BI arena. For example, you might need to summarize sales in previous years and to allocate the budget forecasts. You have to work with data at different granularities and to find a way to author DAX code to compute the forecasts at the desired granularity.
When it comes to budgeting, each company is a unique scenario. In this session, you will see some common techniques to use when building a budget model with Power BI and Power Query, including previous year allocation, multiple-step budgeting with calculated tables, handling of budget on products that do not yet exist.

We will start with a presentation of what is new in Power BI and what will come soon.

The number of attendees is limited to 70 - and the interest of participating will be high so lets try to avoid no-shows.

Power ON !
