The Gap Between Basic and Advanced Pivot Tables by Chandeep Chhabra #PowerQuery #Data #PowerPivot #excel #PowerBI www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Iy3...
When Power Pivot Gets the Highlighter Treatment To keep your PivotChart dynamic and always highlight the true min and max of what is visible, use iterator functions like MINX and MAXX paired with ALL or ALLSELECTED to carefully control what context is being evaluated. (Image of a column chart with 4 columns. The min column is highlighted red, the max column is highlighted green, and the other columns are left as grey.) (Skillwave Training logo)
In our last Ask Ken Anything (AKA) session, one of our students asked a fantastic question: how do you replicate a dynamic chart highlight in #Excel - one that visually flags the minimum, maximum, and neutral data points - when working inside #PowerPivot with #DAX measures? 📊

How Iterator Functions Work Formulae: - Regular: =[Units on Hand]*[Avg Cost] - SUMX: =SUMX(Inventory,[Regular]) Screenshot of a output table with columns containing the totals generated for both formulae: - Regular = 491.00 = SUM(1,2,4,4,9) * AVERAGE(23.95,24.95,23.95,24.95,24.95) - SUMX = 494.00 = SUMX( SUM(1) * AVERAGE(23.95) + SUM(2) * AVERAGE(24.95) + SUM(4) * AVERAGE(23.95) + SUM(4) * AVERAGE(24.95) + SUM(9) * AVERAGE(24.95) )
I wrapped up the week by leading a course for CPABC on using #DAX in #PowerPivot for gaining enhanced #DataInsights.
For Example, if you've ever had to generate cost by line on a financial statement, use an Iterator function as they add a “Row Context” that Aggregator functions don’t have. 💡
A student asked why a #PivotTable counts 3 Lines of Credit as “used” when one of them has a zero balance and shouldn’t be counted. 🤷🏾 And do you need #PowerPivot and #DAX to fix it?
Nope! @excelguru.ca shows it takes just simple data-prep adjustment in #PowerQuery:
Why does a #PivotTable count three Lines of Credit as “used” when one of them has a zero balance and shouldn’t be counted? 🤷🏾 And more importantly — do you need #PowerPivot and #DAX to fix it? Here, I'll show you that you don't: youtu.be/-X-ELoJ9Kiw

estimonial "I found it really interesting to see how the general ledger came together dynamically... The most exciting part was learning how easy it is to integrate transactional data into a data model using a chart of accounts as the primary key. It was only possible because you had set up all the data models and DAX measurements." Andrew K.

Stop Using XLOOKUP for Large #Data in #excel by Chandeep Chhabra #PowerQuery #PowerPivot #PowerBI www.youtube.com/watch?v=D_AJ...

I'm leading my #DimensionalModeling in #PowerPivot course today for Chartered Professional Accountants of British Columbia. One of the key concepts for #DataModeling is how your data tables relate to one another.
Relationship Schemas:
⭐️ Star
❄️ Snowflake
💫 Galaxy / Fact Constellation
Seeing paid dates, invoice dates, and transaction dates handled correctly – all from one calendar – was a big “aha” moment for many attendees. Smarter models come from understanding relationships, not adding tables. 💡
#FinancialAnalytics #DataAnalysis #BusinessIntelligence #PowerPivot
An important concept that #Excel users often struggle with when starting on their #PowerBI and #PowerPivot journey is that they need to learn to think about data in tables rather than thinking about data in cells. 🤔 Matt Allington explains it here:
If you prefer to keep your #PowerPivot or #PowerBI Measures on a dedicated measure table, I'll show you an easy way to create a measure table with #PowerQuery, and what you must do in order to avoid the dreaded "Relationships May be Needed" error in #Excel:

✅ Prevent users from accidentally adding a "foreign key" to a #PivotTable (resulting in cross filtering issues)
✅ Keep data organized
✅ Visibly identify tables with measures on them

In this Monkey Shorts, I show how to get your #PivotTables to show dates, even if there are no values present for the chosen Fact/Measure column. It's easy with #PowerPivot backed PivotTables, but regular pivot tables involve a little magic. 🧙
