Litware uses Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) to authenticate users.
Data Concerns
You are concerned with the quality and completeness of the sales data. You plan to verify the sales data for negative
sales amounts.
Reporting Requirements
Litware identifies the following technical requirements:
– Executives require a visual that shows sales by region.
– Region managers require a visual to analyze weekly sales and returns.
– Sales managers must be able to see the sales data of their respective region only.
– The sales managers require a visual to analyze sales performance versus sales targets.
– The sale department requires reports that contain the number of sales transactions.
– Users must be able to see the month in reports as shown in the following example: Feb 2020.
– The customer service department requires a visual that can be filtered by both sales month and ship month
independently.
You need to create a calculated column to display the month based on the reporting requirements.
Which DAX expression should you use?
A . FORMAT(‘Date'[date], "MMM YYYY")
B . FORMAT(‘Date’ [date], "M YY")
C . FORMAT(‘Date'[date_id], "MMM") & "" & FORMAT(‘Date'[year], "#")
D . FORMAT(‘Date’ [date_id], "MMM YYYY")
Answer: D
Explanation:
Scenario: In the Date table, the date_id column has a format of yyyymmdd. Users must be able to see the month in
reports as shown in the following example: Feb 2020.
Question: 228
Question Set 3
You have a large dataset that contains more than 1 million rows. The table has a datetime column named Date.
You need to reduce the size of the data model.
What should you do?
A . Round the hour of the Date column to startOfHour.
B . Change the data type of the Date column to Text.
C . Trim the Date column.
D . Split the Date column into two columns, one that contains only the time and another that contains only the date.
Answer: D
Explanation:
We have to separate date & time tables. Also, we don’t need to put the time into the date table, because the time is
repeated every day. Split your DateTime column into a separate date & time columns in fact table, so that you can join
the date to the date table & the time to the time table. The time need to be converted to the nearest round minute or
second so that every time in your data corresponds to a row in your time table.

Question: 229
You have a data model that contains many complex DAX expressions. The expressions contain frequent references to
the RELATED and RELATEDTABLE functions.
You need to recommend a solution to minimize the use of the RELATED and RELATEDTABLE functions.
What should you recommend?
A . Split the model into multiple models.
B . Hide unused columns in the model.
C . Merge tables by using Power Query.
D . Transpose.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Combining data means connecting to two or more data sources, shaping them as needed, then consolidating them into a
useful query. When you have one or more columns that you’d like to add to another query, you merge the queries.
Note: The RELATEDTABLE function is a shortcut for CALCULATETABLE function with no logical expression.
CALCULATETABLE evaluates a table expression in a modified filter context and returns A table of values.

Question: 230
You have the following three versions of an Azure SQL database:
– Test
– Production
– Development
You have a dataset that uses the development database as a data source.
You need to configure the dataset so that you can easily change the data source between the development, test, and
production database servers from powerbi.com.
Which should you do?
A . Create a JSON file that contains the database server names. Import the JSON file to the dataset.
B . Create a parameter and update the queries to use the parameter.
C . Create a query for each database server and hide the development tables.
D . Set the data source privacy level to Organizational and use the ReplaceValuePower Query M function.
Answer: D
Explanation:
With privacy level settings, you can specify an isolation level that defines the degree that one data source must be
isolated from other data sources.
An Organizational data source limits the visibility of a data source to a trusted group of people. An Organizational data
source is isolated from all Public data sources, but is visible to other Organizational data sources.
Reference: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/admin/desktop-privacy-levels
Question: 231
You have an Azure SQL database that contains sales transactions. The database is updated frequently.
You need to generate reports from the data to detect fraudulent transactions. The data must be visible within five
minutes of an update.
How should you configure the data connection?
A . Add a SQL statement.
B . Set Data Connectivity mode to DirectQuery.
C . Set the Command timeout in minutes setting.
D . Set Data Connectivity mode to Import.
Answer: B
Explanation:
With Power BI Desktop, when you connect to your data source, it’s always possible to import a copy of the data into
the Power BI Desktop. For some data sources, an alternative approach is available: connect directly to the data source
using DirectQuery.
DirectQuery: No data is imported or copied into Power BI Desktop. For relational sources, the selected tables and
columns appear in the Fields list. For multi-dimensional sources like SAP Business Warehouse, the dimensions and
measures of the selected cube appear in the Fields list. As you create or interact with a visualization, Power BI
Desktop queries the underlying data source, so you’re always viewing current data.
Incorrect Answers:
D: Import: The selected tables and columns are imported into Power BI Desktop. As you create or interact with a
visualization, Power BI Desktop uses the imported data. To see underlying data changes since the initial import or the
most recent refresh, you must refresh the data, which imports the full dataset again.

Overview
Existing Environment
Contoso, Ltd. is a manufacturing company that produces outdoor equipment. Contoso has quarterly board meetings for
which financial analysts manually prepare Microsoft Excel reports, including profit and loss statements for each of the
company’s four business units, a company balance sheet, and net income projections for the next quarter.
Data and Sources
Data for the reports comes from three sources. Detailed revenue, cost, and expense data comes from an Azure SQL
database. Summary balance sheet data comes from Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. The balance sheet data
is not related to the profit and loss results, other than they both relate dates.
Monthly revenue and expense projections for the next quarter come from a Microsoft SharePoint Online list. Quarterly
projections relate to the profit and loss results by using the following shared dimensions: date, business unit,
department, and product category.
Net Income Projection Data
Net income projection data is stored in a SharePoint Online list named Projections in the format shown in the
following table.

Revenue projections are set at the monthly level and summed to show projections for the quarter.
Balance Sheet Data
The balance sheet data is imported with final balances for each account per month in the format shown in the following
table.

There is always a row for each account for each month in the balance sheet data.
Dynamics 365 Business Central Data
Business Central contains a product catalog that shows how products roll up to product categories, which roll up to
business units.
Revenue data is provided at the date and product level. Expense data is provided at the date and department level.
Business Issues
Historically, it has taken two analysts a week to prepare the reports for the quarterly board meetings. Also, there is
usually at least one issue each quarter where a value in a report is wrong because of a bad cell reference in an Excel
formula. On occasion, there are conflicting results in the reports because the products and departments that roll up to
each business unit are not defined consistently.
Requirements
Planned Changes
Contoso plans to automate and standardize the quarterly reporting process by using Microsoft Power BI. The company
wants to how long it takes to populate reports to less than two days. The company wants to create common logic for
business units, products, and departments to be used across all reports, including, but not limited, to the quarterly
reporting for the board.
Technical Requirements
Contoso wants the reports and datasets refreshed with minimal manual effort.
The company wants to provide a single package of reports to the board that contains custom navigation and links to
supplementary information.
Maintenance, including manually updating data and access, must be minimized as much as possible.
Security Requirements
The reports must be made available to the board from powerbi.com. A mail-enabled security group will be used to
share information with the board.
The analysts responsible for each business unit must see all the data the board sees, except the profit and loss data,
which must be restricted to only their business unit’s data. The analysts must be able to build new reports from the
dataset that contains the profit and loss data, but any reports that the analysts build must not be included in the
quarterly reports for the board. The analysts must not be able to share the quarterly reports with anyone.
Report Requirements
You plan to relate the balance sheet to a standard date table in Power BI in a many-to-one relationship based on the
last day of the month. At least one of the balance sheet reports in the quarterly reporting package must show the
ending balances for the quarter, as well as for the previous quarter.
Projections must contain a column named RevenueProjection that contains the revenue projection amounts.
A relationship must be created from Projections to a table named Date that contains the columns shown in the
following table.
The relationships between products and departments to business units must be consistent across all reports.
The board must be able to get the following information from the quarterly reports:
– Revenue trends over time
– Ending balances for each account
– A comparison of expenses versus projections by quarter
– Changes in long-term liabilities from the previous quarter
– A comparison of quarterly revenue versus the same quarter during the prior year
What is the minimum number of datasets and storage modes required to support the reports?
A . two imported datasets
B . a single DirectQuery dataset
C . two DirectQuery datasets
D . a single imported dataset
Answer: A

Question: 233
You import two Microsoft Excel tables named Customer and Address into Power Query.
Customer contains the following columns:
– Customer ID
– Customer Name
– Phone
– Email Address
– Address ID
Address contains the following columns:
– Address ID
– Address Line 1
– Address Line 2
– City
– State/Region
– Country
– Postal Code
The Customer ID and Address ID columns represent unique rows.
You need to create a query that has one row per customer. Each row must contain City, State/Region, and Country for
each customer.
What should you do?
A . Merge the Customer and Address tables.
B . Transpose the Customer and Address tables.
C . Group the Customer and Address tables by the Address ID column.
D . Append the Customer and Address tables.
Answer: A
Explanation:
There are two primary ways of combining queries: merging and appending.
– When you have one or more columns that you’d like to add to another query, you merge the queries.
– When you have additional rows of data that you’d like to add to an existing query, you append the query.
