@@absentdata Hello, thanks for the video; how did you create the 2023 and 2022 button visualizations at 59:56 as just before the report did not have these; I made buttons through the insert tab (not selecting the visualizations pane as I did not see those visualizations in the available ones) and shaped them into a trapezoid but when I select the filters pane (with my buttons selected) it does not say Filters on this visualization, it only says filters on this page. You kinda skipped that step and I am confused. I am having trouble trying to filter the the Units Yoy and Profit Yoy for 2022/2023 as a result; as you did not explain the edit relationships thing or the visualization I explained above. Could you please respond back?

28:28 Connecting MS SQL Server to Power BI

[@lucskyost]

Solution to handle incorrect date format after data import: By default, SQL Server uses system regional settings to interpret date formats (e.g., DMY for Vietnam, MDY for US), then converts them to YMD format when storing. -To handle DMY format, run SET DATEFORMAT DMY before importing. -If you prefer not to change the default, update the table with: UPDATE product_sales.dbo.product_sales SET Date = CONVERT(DATETIME, FORMAT(Date, 'yyyy-dd-MM HH:mm:ss'), 120); -Alternatively, change system regional settings: +Go to Region settings. +Set Date format to dd/MM/yyyy. +Restart SQL Server if necessary. -You can also edit the CSV file before importing to ensure correct date formatting.

Skimmed through this a bit to see value of coming back later. I think I am going to show this to my interns as it shows way more than our corproate training! *Full disclosure question (didn't watch it all yet) The images you have as image_url @42:44 that you selected. Can is that all local data or actual URL images from web? Never seen something like that used dynamically, always still photos.

[@absentdata]

Glad you enjoyed the content. In the video there are local and image URL used. For the slicer and main image, I used image URLs. Its easier that way and you can share the dashboard. It is possible to use just local images, it requires a bit more work to transform them with the invoke function.

[@IisAisah-n6w]

Thank a lot, but I encountered an issue at minute 40:06. After adding the Product, when I tried to click on the paintbrush visual, I couldn’t find the Images menu.

@@absentdata Thanks for replying I don't mean the Dates table, I have that already. What did you do exactly to make the 2022/2023 black and white colored filters that trapezoid shape at 59:56 in the video next to the ASCES logo; like what steps did you take? I have tried to recreate it in but because you did not actually show them I have not made progress.

[@vitoroliveira2203]

First of all, I would like to thank you for your work! It is helping my data analytics studies A LOT! At 39:34 I'm encountering an error when I try to filter by clicking the images. "Error while retrieving data for this visual" "Query (4,3) The column 'Image_url' in table 'Consulta1' cannot be found or cannot be used in this expression." What can I do about it? I don't know if it matters, however, my OS and PowerBI language are pt-br.

Remember the errors are not decoration. Please read them. You need to follow the video, its addressed. The error says you dont have the image url in your code. So, please add the image url to your SQL code to bring so that you can avoid this error.

Welcome

[@markshrigley4064]

bravo on this video. I pretty much consider myself an intermediate SQL guy - but I picked up a thing or two watching you do some SQL. One question i have. Curious why you didn't clean any data before importing it to SQL Server. thx again!

[@TheLaxmanAcharya]

same question , when we can clean it in python easily , who do we have to do it in sql

[@absentdata]

It was just to keep this video short and simple. Cleaning up data is an important step but for a beginner video, I was just going for the core concepts.

[@absentdata]

You can do data cleaning at the source level which is SQL or in that BI tool or in Python. Doesn't matter where as longs it gets cleaned

[@montegukh7907]

amazing video, i've learned alot But just one issue, at around 1:05 instead of 34%, I am getting the answer as 0, for all the products.

[@absentdata]

Check out the description it will show you how to create a date table. There was an issue when I uploaded it and this short section was skipped.

[@TheLaxmanAcharya]

[@absentdata]

Of course, you can!

[@santikaia]

Thanks for great tutorial. But, I ran into problem at 1:01:25, I can't find 'Data Table'. Where did you get it from?

[@absentdata]

You can create a date table by following the instructions 1. Click Modeling in the top ribbon 2. Choose New Table 3. Add this to you DAX formula: Calendar = CALENDAR("1/1/2022","12/31/2023")

[@santikaia]

Thanks for quick reply. I created a date table ad you suggested tho I don't know why the percentage is 648K%

[@absentdata]

Check your calculation and also that the discount column is a decimal and not a whole number. For example 14 should be .14

[@santikaia]

@@absentdata I fixed it by draw relationship line between Calendar and date column in the main table with many to one as the cardinality. It gives the same result (34% growth) but I dont know if it's the right way to do it. Is it right?

[@orangiruth5158]

Alternatively you can write this expression CalenderTable= CALENDER( DATE(2022,1,1), DATE(2023,12,31) )

Hey, thank you for the amazing content! I’m facing an issue where, when I load data using the query into Power BI, the table appears empty. It seems like the query is not returning any results.

Hey bro, thanks for the awsome visuals. however, i am not able to get the profit yoy(34%) you got for 2023 . please can you assist with an explanation

[@alicemtopcu743]

I encountered an issue where my results were different from the video tutorial because the date format was not recognized correctly by SQL Server. After some investigation, I realized that the problem was related to my computer’s regional settings. The default regional settings were causing SQL Server to interpret the date format incorrectly. To resolve the issue, I changed my computer's regional settings to Turkey, which aligns the date format to dd/MM/yyyy. Once I did this, the date format in SQL Server was recognized correctly, and everything worked as expected. If you're facing similar issues with date format discrepancies, try adjusting your regional settings to match the format of your data.

[@absentdata]

Awesome tip!!
