    Hi,

    What if I have the same Item No. in differente companies in the Database?

    Is there a way that the embebbed report show only the data from the Current Company.

    Yes, that's possible.

    You simply need to add a report filter in the Power BI report that contains the Item No field:

    Display Custom Power BI Reports - Business Central | Microsoft Learn

    To make the data update to the selected record in the list, you add a filter to the report. The filter must include a field of the data source that's used to uniquely identify each record in the list. In developer terms, this field is the primary key. In most cases, the primary key for a list is the No. field.

    As Zhu mentioned its not possible you can also set filters on particular fields, pages etc. but not on report.

    Hi, as far as I know, this cannot be done. When selecting a Report, you can control which Report to open, but the system does not add parameters for Power BI filter conditions. This is controlled within Power BI, unless you add a Power BI report for each Item. . . .
