Hello I am new to Informatica Analyst. I am trying to create a scorecard in Informatica Analyst. I was told to use a rule. I am using the rule for completeness, where it checks for nulls and blanks. I was told to only use the field that is the outfield (output from rul) when I do the scorecard. The scorecard comes out green rather than red. It comes out all green, but all the data is null. Can you please let me know what I am doing wrong? I also changed the percentage, but instead of getting a long red bar, like I got when it was green the red bar is only about 1/16 inch long. With all of the data being incomplete, I thought I would get a long red bar.
You can run and edit the scorecard in the Analyst tool. You can create and view a scorecard in the Developer tool. You can run the scorecard on current data in the data object or on data staged in the profiling warehouse.
You can view a scorecard in the Scorecards workspace. After you run the scorecard, you can view the scores on the Scorecard panel. You can select the data object and navigate to the data object from a score within a scorecard. The Analyst tool opens the data object in another tab.
You can perform the following tasks when you work with scorecards:
Create a scorecard in the Developer tool and add columns from a profile.
Optionally, connect to the Analyst tool and open the scorecard in the Analyst tool.
After you run a profile, add profile columns as metrics to the
scorecard.
Optionally, configure the cost of invalid data for each metric.
Run the scorecard to generate the scores for columns.
View the scorecard to see the scores for each column in a record. Drill down
on the columns for a score.
Edit a scorecard.
Set thresholds for each metric in a scorecard. Create a group to add
or move related metrics in the scorecard.
Edit or delete a group, as required.
View the score trend chart for each score to monitor how the score changes over time.
Optionally, view the cost trend chart for each metric to monitor the value of data quality.
View scorecard lineage for each metric or metric group.

I am working on the reporting project that uses PowerBI as the data visualization tool.
I need create a processing approval workflow on the PowerBI tool. After seeing the Dashboard, the employer can approve some exception cases and the workflow can direct connect with email or ticket system.
There are 2 cases:
Approve for the whole dashboard that supports to be easy. I don't have any problem here.
Approve for singular object/row in a table chart. So I must generate number of buttons according to the number of row, which I need help. I don't know how to generate dynamic number of buttons and attached to row. And how to program/code it to create a view or action to become an approval step.
Button PowerBI
In this screenshot, my plan is create buttons in each row and each button has the same function with parameter is username or IP. And after that I can send email to the user and notice him/her that his/her case is approve for exception.
I find this https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/A-simple-and-fun-guide-to-Microsoft-Flow-and-Power-BI/ba-p/151530. But it doesn't seem helpful. Anyone here has ever dealt with approval case like this.
Is PowerBI able to do the approval process like I want?
Thank you so much.
First: This kind of goes against the spirit of BI in general. BI is for data visualization, exploration, etc. It's not really a UI for inserting data and executing tasks. Maybe you want instead to have a front end that lets you do things, and only needs to handle a very limited dataset? PowerApps is good for that. If the dataset is less than 1000 rows, this could work.
Second: I'm pretty sure it's not possible to create a button (like one that you'd see in an HTML page) that does what you want it to do in a Power BI table visual.
Third: There is a "drill through" button capability, but this just lets you navigate from one area in the report to another, not send an email or execute a Power Automate flow or anything like that. You may have seen a button on a table visual, but it's misleading. It's not really programmable like an HTML/JS button on a website.

That said, within the last 1.5 years or so, we now have the PowerApps add-in available. You could create an app that utilizes your streaming dataset, create a gallery that looks at that dataset and creates a kind of table with buttons on it, and then each button is set to execute the flow you've created in Power Automate.

All of this is very, extremely straightforward, but beware, the PowerApp will start to cost you extra money depending on where your data is housed. If it's a SQL server, you'll need both a premium PowerApp license and Power Automate license too.
Sorry for the not so great news, but this is kind of a limitation of Power BI.
Can Power Apps be used to build a tool that allow for budgeting and forecasting? Along the lines of Data Entry via form? and how can you go about this
The goal is to allow a user to write back a Budget / Forecast value to a sql server table.
Month Budget Forecast
Jan20
Feb20
Mar20
Apr20
.. etc
In addition, it will need to be designed to allow users to enter both budget and forecast via inventory level such as by Panel Class, by Format etc.
Either way, MonthYear or Inventory levels, the total values need to roll up to be the same. Similar to cubes on Board reporting tool.
Any tips?
In short, yes you can create form to submit data to the database and then analyze and display data in PowerBI. PowerApp and PowerBI can work together in many scenarios. Here you may have a quick idea of the possibilities..

I am trying to build a dashboard where there are three tables - Class, Subject, School. Is it possible to display details of the subjects on the click of a class and if we select one of the subjects it should reflect schools that are related to subjects like one shown in the image?
All the visuals you want to have live interaction should be from a single report, and then you can pin that whole report to a dashboard.
Or just use a report page instead of creating a dashboard at all.
Normally in BI tools, I open a report page, see empty tables, their column names, and empty charts. I select some filters from header place and click on the View button to query report and see the result.
But in PowerBI, when I open a published report page, I see a completely rendered report. If I want to apply a date range, I have to run report again. In this way, my report query runs twice, but I don't want to spend my CPU power on the initial rendered full report with data.
How can I prepare reports and publish in PowerBI, which End users may see an empty page or empty charts? The report must be displayed with data only if the end-user selects the filters and click on any apply button.
Q: How to render report charts after filters are applied in PowerBI?
A: Bookmarks
Yes, even empty reports can easily be done using the feature in Power Bi Desktop. The idea behind a Power Bi's bookmark is that it will remember or preserve your report page visuals in any filtered state.
So, to get the empty report style, set your filters or slicers so that no results are displayed in your report page, then save things as a bookmark. Click Add in the bookmarks pane, and name it to something you will remember.
Then on the main index page for your reports, link to your report using that bookmark to your report with empty results.
Example
Turn on bookmarks by clicking the bookmarks pane checkbox under the view menu:
Note: If you are using a version prior to March 2018, the bookmarks are a preview feature and might not be found in the view menu.
For the following report data:
The below report which displays song data in a table, number of songs in the card on the right and a date slicer below. Note the date range intersects some of the song dates in the data and these are the songs displayed in the reports table and card:
If you then enter in a dates into the slicer (12/31/1970) that do not intersect the dates in the table, this will zero out the report:
Then you go to the bookmarks pane and Click the Add button at the top as Bookmark 1. Right-click and rename to "Blank Song Report".
Now anywhere in your presentation, you can link back to a blank song report using this "Blank Song Report" bookmark. Being able to save reports in a certain state is a powerful feature and you can achieve this through Bookmarks.
re: CPU power
All CPU power spent on Power Bi Reports is on the client side of things. If the reports are run inside of Power Bi Desktop that is in a program on the users computer. If the report is served from Power Bi service or from Power Bi Report Server the users browser will be running and rendering the report via JavaScript. So there is no need to worry about "CPU spend", because it will all be on the client side.
I am working on a power bi report to show the Servers' performance against the Restaurant's performance.
I have two main tables: feedback and server
feedback and server tables have cross filter direction of "both"
I have a chart for the names and their served counts and the user can click the servers and the report should change appropriately.
I have 2 main measures: performance indicator for the restaurant and server
I would like to create a Restaurant Performance measure that is ONLY filtered by the time slicer(Timeline), AND does not drill down when I click the name of the servers. I have the following code but it seems my number is off somehow. Any ideas?
_MEASURE_CSI_TABLETALK = CALCULATE(SUMX(Feedback, [TotalFeedback] * [AverageRating]), ALLEXCEPT(servers, servers[AverageRating])) / CALCULATE(SUM(Feedback[TotalFeedback]), ALLEXCEPT(servers, servers[ServedCount]))
One solution to your problem is to handle the interactions between visuals in Report view.
Click the Edit interactions button in the Format page of the ribbon. Now when you select the chart that has the names of the servers, you can change the way that that chart filters all other visualisations on the same page, for the visual which displays your Restaurant Performance measure, click 'None':
