    You will need to do a bit of work, but this should help:

    Hello , 

    First of all thank you for your response and happy new year , 

    I checked the guide it only shows how to get data from Business Central to Power BI , but i couldn't find how to publish the created report/dashboard on Business Central to view it there directly instead of the default dashboards of BC

    thank you

    Riyadh,

    Happy New Year. Try this:

    To embed Power Bi reports in D365BC, steps are the following:

    1) create the report in Power BI connected to D365bc data

    2) Publish the report to your Power BI Service workspace

    3) In Business Central, when you go to a Power BI section and click on Select Report you can see all your reports published in your workspace.

    You cannot directly embed an offline Power BI report (.pbix file).

    Thanks,

    Steve

    Hello , 

    Thank you for your answer ,

    But this solution requires to go by Power BI service which is in the cloud , isn't it possible to use Power BI Report server in the local network ?

    No, not by default, you will need to program that... maybe via a client-addin?
