You need a minimum screen resolution of about 700 pixels width to see our exercises. This is because they contain diagrams and tables which would not be viewable easily on a mobile phone or small laptop. Please use a larger tablet, notebook or desktop computer, or change your screen resolution settings.
Open the Power BI report in the above folder. It contains 3 pages:
Page | Contents |
---|---|

The start and end dates should be set automatically for you.

Select this icon to synchronise your slicers.
Check that your filtering works across pages, then save your report as Synchronicity, and close it down.
