Book Description
If you want to get the most out of Microsoft Business Intelligence tools, sooner or later you'll need to master DAX. Extreme DAX enables business analysts to generate powerful and sophisticated analyses from their data.
You'll learn the principles of business intelligence, good model design, and how DAX fits into it all. Then, you'll launch into detailed examples of DAX in real-world business scenarios such as inventory calculations, forecasting, intercompany business, and data security. At each step, senior DAX experts will walk you through the subtleties involved in working with Power BI models and common mistakes to look out for as you build advanced data aggregations.
You'll deepen your understanding of DAX functions, filters, and measures, and how and when they can be used to derive effective insights. Also provided with the book are PBIX files for each chapter for you to follow along with and explore in your own time.
What you will learn
- Understand data modeling concepts and structures before you start working with DAX
- Grasp how relationships in Power BI models are different from those in RDBMSes
- Secure aggregation levels, attributes, and hierarchies using PATH functions and row-level security
- Get to grips with the crucial concept of context
- Apply advanced context and filtering functions including TREATAS, GENERATE, and SUMMARIZE
- Explore dynamically changing visualizations with helper tables and dynamic labels and axes
- Work with week-based calendars and understand standard time-intelligence
- Evaluate investments intelligently with the XNPV and XIRR financial DAX functions
Who this book is for
If you are an analyst with a working knowledge of DAX in MS Power BI or other Microsoft analytics tools, this book will help you upgrade your DAX knowledge and work with analytical models more effectively.
This book is not for beginners and practical experience with DAX is necessary.
