Hi there! I'm new to Power BI and have a few questions that I’ve been struggling to find clear answers for.
I recently completed the Power BI course from Maven Analytics, so I have a basic understanding of the platform. I work as an Executive Assistant in an executive office, and while Power BI isn't part of my official role, it's a skill I really want to develop.
I support three different teams, each of which has its own dashboard. My boss would like to combine specific information from each of these dashboards into a single, consolidated report. However, I don’t have a Fabric license, and based on what I learned in the course, it seems like one is required to set up things like dataflows or shared workspaces—which would make managing the data sources a lot easier. Unfortunately, since I don’t have that license, that option is off the table for now.
As a workaround, one of the teams shared a synced folder with me that contains their Excel-based data source, which I could use. The idea would be to manually rebuild everything—tables, relationships, DAX calculations—for each report. This is my very first report, and I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed and unsure where to begin.
Any advice or insight would be greatly appreciated! (Please be gentle on me; I'm still learning)
