In this lesson

Prepare for the PL-300 exam (Microsoft Certified: Power BI Data Analyst Associate). In this lesson: implicit and explicit measures, SUM, COUNTROWS, and DISTINCTCOUNT, calculated columns and tables, CALCULATE with filters and modifiers like REMOVEFILTERS, and quick measures. Includes three original practice questions.

Preview the topics
  • Each order has several order lines, and the Sales table stores one row per line, with an OrderID column. A measure must count orders, not lines. Which function fits?
  • Authors need a Ship Date table, to filter sales by ship date in the same visual as the order date. The Date table already exists. What should the modeler create?
  • A matrix shows Total Sales by region. A new measure must show the sales of all regions on every row, so that each region’s share can be computed. Which measure fits?
