Learning Power BI Query Editor & DAX language

Learning Objective

Manage and edit data in power query, understand DAX logic and create DAX measures on Power BI Desktop.

What have I learnt?

  • Edit and transform data in Query Editor
  • DAX Syntax
  • Create DAX measures
  • DAX Formulas (eg: Calculate, Generateseries, X-factor functions, Filter, If function and so on)
  • Custom Visuals

Result

Created a report using Power BI DAX measures and tables to detail a loan and it’s payment schedule.

Report Dax exercise (loan dashboard)

DAX formulas and functions are very similar to Excel formulas which I am familiar to but writing them without Excel cells make it complicated. Definitely need more practice on this!
