Self Service BI using Power BI
Data Discovery
Powerful self-service BI with Excel 2013
Why Power Query ? 
Enable self-service data discovery, query, transformation and mashup experiences 
Discovery and connectivity to a wide range of data sources, spanning volume as well as variety of data. 
Highly interactive and intuitive experience for rapidly and iteratively building queries over any data source, any size. 
Consistencyof experience, and parity of query capabilities over all data sources. 
Joinsacross different data sources; ability to create custom views over data that can then be shared with team/department.
Data Shaping and Manipulation 
•Configure Data Types 
•Rename and remove columns 
•Insert Custom Columns 
•Split Columns (i.e. convert delimited text to columns) 
•Sort, Group, merge columns 
•Un-pivot Columns 
•Filter Data 
•Replace Value 
•Keep top ‘N’ rows or specific range of rows 
•Remove Duplicates 
Search data, many sources, many transformations, Extensible by code (M language) 
Share to Power BI by data catalog

Key Featured Highlights in Power Query 
14 
Repeatable Steps 
Shared Queries 
oSee the state of the data before and after each step was applied 
oRepeatable steps are repeatable for the same set of data 
oSharing of Queries with other users in the organization 
oSearch for "Organization" data to discover a shared Power Query
Data Analysis
Powerful self-service BI with Excel 2013
Introducing PowerPivot 
•PowerPivot empowers business users to create self- service BI data models in Excel 
‐Achieved with a client-side version of SQL Server Analysis Services, known as the In-Memory Analytics Engine 
‐Columnar Storage: Can efficiently store data volumes far greater than what Excel worksheets can achieve 
‐Data is highly compressed and stored 
‐Queries are very fast 
•Can import and relate data from corporate, local, and ad hoc data stores 
•In Excel 2013 Professional Plus edition, PowerPivot is installed, but not enabled

Power Query v/s Power Pivot –Data Sources
What is DAX ? 
20 
DAX (Data Analysis Expression) is a new calculation for Power Pivot 
It is a multi dimensional calculation language intended to: 
Make it easy to perform common calculations 
Make it easy for excel power users, hence Excel based syntax 
DAX expressions are designed to be limited as single line of code 
Need to understand the data logic built in power pivot data models 
Likely to be extended in the future versions of SSAS
Types of Calculations in Power Pivot 
21 
Calculated Columns 
CalculatedFields (Measures) 
New Calculationin table which performs calculations on a “row by row” basis (row context) 
Example: = ‘Employee’[Fname] & “ “ & ‘Employee’[Lname] 
New measure in a table which calculatesan aggregated numeric value (not on "rowby row” basis –filter context) 
Example: =TOTALMTD ([SalesUnits], ‘Date’[Datekey]) 
Created in Power Pivot Modelson the columns 
Created in Power PivotModel in the “Calculation area” or in the Power Pivot ribbon menu in excel window 
Two type of Calculated Fields 
a)Explicit : Defined by the data modeler using DAX 
b) Implicit: Uses the “Summarize by” behavior specified in the data model 
An Explicit Field canbe further used to define a KPI in the data model
Data Visualization
Powerful self-service BI with Excel 2013
Introducing Power View 
•Power View is an interactive data exploration, visualization, and presentation experience 
‐Highly visual design experience 
‐Rich meta-driven interactivity 
‐Presentation-ready at all times 
•It delivers intuitive ad-hoc reporting for business users 
•Reports can be based on tabular data models, including PowerPivot data models 
•It is now also available in Excel 2013, and with new features:
Bar and column charts are good for showing measurable values in a quick an direct way 
Pie Chart 
Pie charts are preferable when the user would like to see the percentage of a measurable value in different categories 
Line Chart 
Line charts are good for showing how a value changed over time 
Play Axis (scatter chart) 
Play axis charts are good when you are trying to show the relationship between two measurable values( e.g. profit and cost) ,that may or may not be linearly related, over time. 
Maps 
Maps are preferable for showing measurable values at specific locations.
