Hello everyone.

Happy New Year.

Would like to know, in Cost Analysis Workspace, there are several tab for analytics, my guess is, it is Power BI and mine was error.

    Hi,

    You have to have the embedded PowerBI functionality setup and running to see data in those workspaces.

    I would recommend that you talk to one of your system admins for some support / help to get this correctly setup.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Hi Dr.Ludwig,

    Thanks, but Power BI has been setup, some of other Power BI report has run well only I have not use this Cost Analysis Workspace before.

    So my guess is only the Entity Store relate to it not yet refresh. Unless I'm wrong. :)

    Thanks,

    Hi ShaqAX,

    If some of the other PowerBI reports work then the entities in the cost analysis workspace might not be refreshed.

    I don't have a detailed description, which one needs to be refreshed. Probably try to refresh a couple of them such as the CAM... KPIforInventoryAccounting, etc. ones and check if the PowerBI content shows up after the refresh.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Hi Dr.Ludwig,

    Yeah, it turns out the "Monthly statement for cost objects".....  who would guess ?

    Unless there is a doc that I missed, I have to say this is not engaging for user to use. I have to trace the Resource and open PBIX and look into the M Query, then go back to AOT, search the name, then find then name with the type Aggr.Measure to know exactly what is the entity store name. Even further, if we want to match the "friendly name" which is the name shows in Entity store list, then should look in its property then look at the Label, which is what I just wrote above.

    Quite long way to find it.

    Anyway, thanks for the help.

    Cheers,
