What does Building BI in Excel cover?
In Day 1, you’ll learn how Power Query can clean up, reshape and combine your data with ease – no matter where it comes from. You can convert ASCII files into tables, combine multiple text files in one shot, and even un-pivot data. These techniques are not only simple, but an investment in the future! With Power Query’s robust feature set at your fingertips, and your prepared data, you can begin building BI in Excel using Power Pivot. The best part is that these dynamic business intelligence models are refreshable with a single click.
Un-pivoting subcategorized data is easy with Power Query
Day 2 focuses on Power Pivot, a technology that is revolutionizing the way that we look at data inside Microsoft Excel. Power Pivot allows you to link multiple tables together without a single VLOOKUP statement. It also enables you to pull data together from different tables, databases, the web, and other sources like never before. But this just scratches the surface! We'll also focus on proper dimensional modeling techniques and working with DAX formulas to report on your data the way you need to see it.
