Note: This Affordable Power BI Premium article was first written in March 2019, then updated in Nov 2020 to update the changing licencing information that is available to me. I have long been frustrated by the lack of a suitable scalable Power BI pricing model for small to medium sized […]
A few weeks ago, Danielle Stein Fairhurst from Plum Solutions contacted me and asked if I would speak at her financial modelling meetup group (a topic of my choice related to Power BI). I decided to speak about creating a P&L using Power BI and DAX. I first learnt how […]
OK, by now you will likely be getting to understand that I think Tabular Editor is pretty cool. I like every bit about it, and I am learning more every day. Daniel Otykier has done a great job with this wonderful bit of software, and the more I use it […]
This is my third article about Tabular Editor, the others being the recent introduction article a few weeks ago, an also an article explaining how to copy measures between PBIX files.

Level: Intermediate–Advanced I have covered the topic of Lineage in DAX a few times in the past (within other articles). Today I thought I would write a single post dedicated to lineage. As you may know, Power BI has a number of different operation modes, some of which do not […]
Level: Advanced I was helping someone on Power Pivot Forum last week with a tricky calculated column question.
