Add two calendars to a data model to compare two different expense dates

This exercise is provided to allow potential course delegates to choose the correct Wise Owl Microsoft training course, and may not be reproduced in whole or in part in any format without the prior written consent of Wise Owl.

Before you can do this exercise, you'll need to download and unzip this file.

Import both tables from the above workbook. Power BI Desktop will join them together by the wrong field!

The id field just numbers the rows in each table - it's unfortunate that it happens to have the same name and data type in each table.

Delete this relationship, then import another copy of the calendar table, rename both tables and create relationships to get:

One relationship should use the date an expense was incurred, the other the date an expense was paid.

Use this model to show that a few expenses were incurred in one year and paid in the next:

You could apply a conditional formatting rule to highlight numbers less than 100, as here.

Save this file as Small fry, then close it down.

You can unzip this file to see the answers to this exercise, although please remember this is for your personal use only.
