Datetime filter in Power View

Hello,
I have made a power view report from an ssas cube. Despite the fact that the attribute fulldate (see following image)
has date type on the cube when I choose advanced on the filter it is being treated like string. I would like this to be treated as date (see following image, I apologize for being in Greek)
What should I do?
Thank you very much,
Andreas

Hi Sagar,
Based on my test, it is not support to use custom filter in Power View report. However, powerview provides advanced filter mode to filter our field. Please refer to the following steps:
In Excel, select the Power View tab, click Filters Area.
In the Filters area, click Advanced filter mode.
Then, we can according to our requirement to set the filter conditions.
Please refer to the following screenshot:
There is an article about Filtering in Power View, you can refer to it.

Timeline in Power View

Hello,
I have been searching for this in a while. Is it possible to put a timeline filter in power view? I would like to put a bar like the ones provided for integer attributes in filters but for Month-Year.
Thank you very much,
Andreas

Hi Andreas,
This feature isn't available at the moment but you can suggest it using the smiley face (i.e. feedback button) which should be present in the top right hand corner of the Excel 2013 window.

Range Filter Mode not working and throws error in Power View (SharePoint 2013)

Hi,
I am using two filters in my power view report.
One for the contact type group and one for year.
First I select multiple contact type group for the first filter and everything works fine.
Then I try to select the year using the range filter and I get this error:

If I select List Filter mode and try to achieve this it works fine no issue but when I use range filter this weird problem occurs. Can't I select multiple values using Range Filter Mode ? Isn't that's what it is intended to do ? Is it a known bug ? Any kind
of prior experience or help would be much appreciated.

This looks like it could be a bug. You could file an issue at
http://connect.microsoft.com and include a repro. If this is blocking your business, you could also contact support services and if it is determined to be a defect in a Microsoft product, the support is free.

Power View Reports Dynamic filter

Greetings Everyone !
I have a requirement to create a trend chart to show trend for last six months. So on trend chart, it should reflect previous 6 months (i.e. Jul, Aug, Sep, Oct, Nov, Dec) and value against each month.
Problem:
I am using Power view in SharePoint (for multidimensional model) to create this report from SSAS (SQL 2012 SP1) and it doesn't support any custom MDX query to filter data.
Please help if you have any solution for this.
Best Regards,
Youdhbir

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to add alert and subscription for the power view report in sharepoint 2013.
You need to Additional Configuration to provision for subscriptions and alerts when you install Reporting Services SharePoint Mode for SharePoint 2013.
The Reporting Services subscription and data alert features may require the configuration of SQL Server Agent permissions. For more information, see
Provision Subscriptions and Alerts for SSRS Service Applications
PerformancePoint Services is a SharePoint Server 2013 service application. It enables users to create business intelligence (BI) dashboards that provide insight into an organization's performance. You can create custom reports, filters, tabular data sources,
and scorecard transforms to extend the native functionality of PerformancePoint Services.
Power View in SharePoint is browser-based Silverlight application, a feature of the SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 1 (SP 1) Reporting Services Add-in for Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 and 2013. Creating, opening, and saving Power View reports (RDLX files)
all take place in SharePoint Server 2010 and 2013.

Now let's say the current system time is 14:05:00 on 07-01-2015
when I select Hour filter, the PowerView chart should display 'Number of Msgs' vs X-Axis (last one hour with 15 minutes interval).
when I select Day filter, the PowerView chart should display 'Number of Msgs' vs X-Axis (last 24 hours with 1 hour interval).
I am able to achieve Week filter, Month filter, Year filter. Struggling to get Day and Hour filters in place as it involves time section of a DateTime column.

Remove Blank Values from Slicer in Power View

Hi all,
I am trying to create a power view report from a power pivot data model. After creating the model when I try to use the slicer in power view I am seeing the Blank record. Then I checked that dimension in model where I don't have any blank value in there.
Also I checked in fact table where it has a relationship with that dimension and I don't see any blank value there as well.
I am currently blocked with this issue. Experts please jump in and give some ideas how to remove blank value from there.
Thanks

As MM-99 already stated correctly, the BLANK-member is created if there is one or more non-matching row in your fact-table that does not exist in the dimension-table
maybe you have some issues with upper and lower case?
or maybe there are some whitespace characters contained in the text?
to identify the issues you may want to create a calcuated column in your fact-table as =RELATED('DimTable'[MyKeyColumn])
then you can filter on that column and see if any blank values appear

How create animated power view reports using sharepoint list as a data source in sharepoint 2010?

Hi All,
I got a client requirement to create reports using SharePoint List as data source. The report should show reflection depends on values changed (I mean animation).
I have heard about the power view/power pivot which does this kind of animations in reports.
Can someone please guide me on creating reports which shows animations
In power view/power pivot using SharePoint List as data source in SharePoint 2010.
Thanks in advance.
MercuryMan

Hi MercuryMan,
Yes, Power View, a feature of SQL Server 2012 Reporting Services Add-in for Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 or SharePoint 2013 Enterprise Edition, is an interactive data exploration, visualization, and presentation experience.
It provides multiple views featuring tiles, slicers, a chart filter, and a number of visualizations, including cards, small multiples, and a bubble chart. So, we can use Power View to do intuitive ad-hoc reporting for business users such as data analysts, business
decision makers, and information workers.
Currently, Power View report only supports two types of data models: PowerPivot Worksheet, and data models based on Analysis Services Tabular Model or Multidimensional Cube.
In your scenario, you can create PowerPivot worksheets using SharePoint List as data source, deploy the PowerPivot worksheet to a SharePoint Library or PowerPivot Gallery, and then generate Power View reports based on the PowerPivot worksheets on the SharePoint
site.
To use SharePoint List as data source in Excel PowerPivot, you can refer to the following resource:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/excel_services__powerpivot_for_sharepoint_support_blog/archive/2013/07/11/excel-services-using-a-sharepoint-list-as-a-data-source.aspx
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh230322.aspx
To create a Power View report based on PowerPivot model, you can refer to the following links:

Power view display more than 500 values in a field

From my research, it looks like the limit of values in a Power View filter is 500. does anyone if this is configurable to increase (which
I am doubting based on Microsoft’s website as I’ve copied below). If it is not configurable and we cannot display more than 500 values when filtering, then what should be done
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh231514%28v=sql.110%29.aspx

You could always do the concatenation on the client. ie: "select action1, action2 from tableX" and then create a boilerplate object with text that references both of these columns. (eg: "&<action1> &<action2>"). This should give you the concatenation you're after.
Another alternative is to return a "long" column instead. The 4000 is probably down to the varchar datatype restriction.

Power View stuck in loading forever in SharePoint

Hi, we have just configured a new SharePoint instance. We've installed and configured PowerPivot, SSRS SharePoint mode, Excel Services, Performance Point Services, and Silverlight. We uploaded a workbook to a BI site. The workbook contains both standard
Excel sheets and Power View sheets. The standard Excel sheets can render without any problems. But the Power View sheets are stuck in loading. All I see is this loading circle:
There's no error message, and nothing stands out in the logs. We're indeed not sure what's going on. Since there's a loading circle, we assume SSRS is working? Does anyone have ideas? Thanks.
Shining Oh Blue Star

The post on
http://blog.qumsieh.ca/2013/08/19/ssas-sharepoint-2013-we-cannot-locate-a-server-to-load-the-workbook-data-model/ helped us to solve the issue. Basically, several ports on the SSAS server need to be exposed through firewall. These include:
SSAS PowerPivot port: 2382
Standard SSAS port: 2383 (may not be definitely necessary if you only use PowerPivot)
And also, the trickest part: A dynamic port that seems to be different on each installation. In the blog author's case, it was 49165. In our case, it was 62578. To find the port, use Power Query (or another query tool) to load SharePoint's
ULS log, and filter Category to see Data Model only. You'll see the port number in one of the logs which begins with "Uncaught CLR exception crossing the Interop boundary".
I take the problem as solved. But hopefully Microsoft can give us more information on why a dynamic port needs to be opened in firewall, and why it is so difficult to track down the root cause...

Power View filters, able to save individual preferences?

Hi,
We currently have a PowerView report which uses the SSAS tabular datamodel as the datasource. This report contains metrics across many teams, and by default, shows the summary metrics across all teams. I've setup filters in the PowerView so managers
can go in and filter for their specific team. Now my question is, can managers save their individual prefences while not affecting the report for others? So for example, Melinda wants to see the metrics for team A so she filters for team A and saves the file.
The next time Melinda opens the report, it shows the metrics for team A. But Bill comes along later and opens the same report and sees the default metrics (ie. non-team A specific).
Is this possible without saving multiple copies of the same report?
Thanks,
Carter

Great suggestion! This feature is not yet available in Power View at this time. One way to mostly achieve the behavior you are looking for is to implement row level security on the model. With row level security, you can filter the data to the individual
users before it gets to Power View.

How to do a left join to create a timesheet status report in Power View

I am trying to create a very simple report in power view for Project Online. It's a timesheet status report that should show a list of resources, and the current status of their timesheet (in progress, not started, etc).
In Excel, I created an odata connection with Resources and Timesheets, and set up the connection between them. So, I can now easily display a list of timesheets, and filter them by end date. Good. But this only displays rows where there is an existing timesheet.
So resources who have not started a timesheet are not displayed. So, I need a "left join" in power view to display all resources, whether or not they have a timesheet for the period. (and, for the ones that do, I need to display fields from the timesheet,
such as the status description.)
Any suggestions?
Mike G.

Hi Mike,
I'm not sure of what I'm suggesting since I got no instance to test it, but I'm wondering if the OLAP Cube "MSP_Project_Timesheet" wouldn't contain all resources of the enterprise pool with assignments (and not only resources that already submitted
a timesheet) since it is a combination of the assignment timephased, resource timephased and EPM timesheet cubes.
Hope this helps.

Can we have more than 2 "and/or" conditions in filters in advanced mode in power view?

Hi,
I need to check 3 conditions in filter in advanced mode in power view. Is it possible out-of-box. Can we customize the advanced mode filters or do we have some configurable options for same.
Thanks,
Bhawna.

Hi Bhawna,
I'm the Dev Owner for the filtering experience in Power View. Sorry it took so long for me to reply.
In the Power View Advanced Filter cards, you cannot currently add more than two conditions. What Rhys meant about having as many AND filter conditions as you like is that because all of the filter cards are AND-ed together, you can effectively have
more than two filter conditions by adding multiple 'LastModifiedDate' cards.
Unfortunately this won't help you if you're looking to OR more than two conditions.
Adding the ability to have more than two conditions in a single Advanced Filter card is something that is near and dear to my heart, but it does open questions of nesting and grouping which would need to be addressed first in order to be able to offer a
complete solution.
Hope this helps,
Jeremy

Where can I find metadata for Power View reports created in sharepoint 2013.

I am looking for what I would assume is the sql server tables that would hold the MDX (DAX) Queries for the power view reports. Example my customers may create say 30 reports and I need to know quickly if an attribute I am changing is in those reports.
How can I find out what report(s) are using that attribute/measure? Not sure that it matters but using sharepoint 2013 on premise and connecting to Analysis Services (molap).
Ken Craig

P.S. if this is still not making sense create a power view report in SharePoint from a SSAS cube. Save that power view report in SharePoint.  The power view report should
have a couple of measures and 1 or 2 dimension. Open the report just to confirm it is saved correctly. Now go to SSAS and rename 1 of the measures or dimensions that you used, Save and rebuild your olap . If it’s a calculated measure
you just need to save olap.    Now open your power view report and notice that that measure/dimension you changed is no longer in the report.
IN one hand it is great that reports do not error and break; however, on the other hand the users might not know what measure/dimension changed and then be lost/mad because the report no longer
works like they want. In my opinion it would have been better if the power view broke with an error message that it cannot load because measure x does not exist than to just load fine.
In any case I need a method to know when a dimension/measure is modified what reports are using it.   Another example is this could even be a case where the dimension values are getting
modified and we need to potentially make a update to any power view/pivot using this dimension as a filter?

Can I label a Power View sheet created in SharePoint 2013?

Hi,
Is this possible to label a Power View sheet created in SharePoint 2013 and have it shown on the preview snapshots?
This is because in the PowerPivot Gallery in SharePoint 2013 has a really nice display of previews with Excel workbook that includes a label on top of the preview for each worksheet in the workbook.
Thanks,
Jane

Dynamic Security - Power View Cabable of ?

Hi there,
i am currently trying to create some Dashboard Reports using Power View for all Employees.
But i can't allow for any Users being able to see the Data of the other.
Is Power View capable of Determining which user is logged on and give that to my Tabular Project, so it can filter the data through the Dynamic Security implemented in the Tabular Model?

Yes, Power View will work with the tabular model dynamic security. Power View does not do anything special, security is applied by the model.
