12. What is the minimum number of datasets and storage modes required to support the
reports?
A. two imported datasets
B. a single DirectQuery dataset
C. two DirectQuery datasets
D. a single imported dataset
Answer: D
Explanation:
"The analysts responsible for each business unit must see all the data the board sees, except
the profit and loss data, which must be restricted to only their business unit's data. The analysts
must be able to build new reports from the dataset that contains the profit and loss data" => one
dataset and two separate workspaces Reason: All data can be imported into one dataset also if
these are two logical models. Shared dimensions can be reconsumed in both models. Reports
and additional materials can be shared to the board with an app. The "profit and loss" data
model needs RLS for the analysts and the analysts must have just read access to the original
workspace. In a separate workspace with contributer (or more rights) they can create new
reports (with live connection to the dataset). It is also stated that the new reports mustn't be
shared so therefore no need to include them into the app. Import vs. DirectQuery: Due to RLS
requirements an imported dataset is needed. It is not possible with file sources and Sharepoint
lists.

You need to merge the three queries into a single query. The solution must ensure the best
performance in Power Query.
How should you merge the tables? To answer, drag the appropriate merge types to the correct
queries. Each merge type may be used once, more than once, or not at all. You may need to
drag the split bar between panes or scroll to view content. NOTE: Each correct selection is
worth one point.

Answer:
Explanation:
Box 1: Inner
Every Product has a ProductSubCategory.
A standard join is needed.
One of the join kinds available in the Merge dialog box in Power Query is an inner join, which
brings in only matching rows from both the left and right tables.

B. alt text
C. conditional formatting
D. the layer order
Answer: B

55. Drag a date or non-numeric dimension into the Axis of a column chart
Add percentile lines to monitor daily revenue

56. Calculate the row count on the table

57. You have four sales regions. Each region has multiple sales managers.
You implement row-level security (RLS) in a data model. You assign the relevant distribution
lists to each role.
You have sales reports that enable analysis by region. The sales managers can view the sales
records of their region. The sales managers are prevented from viewing records from other
regions.
A sales manager changes to a different region.
You need to ensure that the sales manager can see the correct sales data.
What should you do?
A. From Microsoft Power Bl Desktop, edit the Row-Level Security setting for the reports.
B. Change the Microsoft Power Bl license type of the sales manager.
C. Manage the permissions of the underlying dataset
D. Request that the sales manager be added to the correct Azure Active Directory group.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Using AD Security Groups, you no longer need to maintain a long list of users.
All that you will need to do is to put in the AD Security group with the required permissions and
Power BI will do the REST! This means a small and simple security file with the permissions
and AD Security group.
Note: Configure role mappings
Once published to Power BI, you must map members to dataset roles.
Members can be user accounts or security groups. Whenever possible, we recommend you
map security groups to dataset roles. It involves managing security group memberships in
Azure Active Directory. Possibly, it delegates the task to your network administrators.

You are creating an analytics report that will consume data from the tables shown in the
following
table.

There is a relationship between the tables.

There are no reporting requirements on employeejd and employee_photo.
You need to optimize the data model
What should you configure for employeejd and employee.photo? To answer, select the
appropriate options in the answer area.
Answer:
Explanation:
Box 1: Hide
Optimize data by hiding fields and sorting visualization data
Box 2: Delete
The fastest way to optimize your Power BI report is to limit the number of columns to only the
ones you need in your data model. Go through your tables in Power Query and determine what
fields are being used. Delete these columns if they are not being used in any of your reports or
calculations.

? Address ID
Address contains the following columns:
? Address ID
? Address Line 1
? Address Line 2
? City
? State/Region
? Country
? Postal Code
The Customer ID and Address ID columns represent unique rows.
You need to create a query that has one row per customer. Each row must contain City,
State/Region, and Country for each customer.
What should you do?
A. Merge the Customer and Address tables.
B. Transpose the Customer and Address tables.
C. Group the Customer and Address tables by the Address ID column.
D. Append the Customer and Address tables.
