We also discuss data modelling tips and tricks and start with some DAX (can't have a book without DAX right :)). Building the main report. Here we will create the main report in Power BI Desktop, using the data model he set up in Chapter 3. We create various data visualizations needed for his report (and talk about which visualization to use when). Building detailed reports. Here we dive into more detailed report building with more DAX examples, sync slicer, custom visuals defining crossfiltering. Sharing dashboards and reports within and organization.
