1) You have a dataset with customer feedback ratings on a
scale of 1 to 5. How would you create a measure in Power BI
that calculates the average rating and displays it as a star
rating visualization?
Import the dataset with customer feedback ratings (1 to 5) into
Power BI.
Create the measure using this DAX formula:
Average Rating = AVERAGE('Feedback'[Rating])
Format the measure as a rating with one decimal place.
Use the "Ratings Visuals by TME AG" visual to display the star
rating.
Customize the visual's appearance to match preferences.
2) A business user wants to analyze sales performance by different time periods, such as
month, quarter, and year. How would you design the data model in Power BI to support this
analysis?
To support sales performance analysis by different time periods (month, quarter, and year), I would design the data
model in Power BI as follows:
Create a "Date" table: Generate a date table that covers the entire range of dates in the dataset. This table will serve as
the date dimension and provide various time-related attributes like day, month, quarter, year, etc.
Link the "Date" table to the sales data: Establish a relationship between the "Date" table and the sales data using the
common date field present in both tables.
Aggregating Sales Measures: Create calculated measures like "Total Sales," "Average Sales," or any other relevant
metrics based on the sales data. These measures will automatically aggregate based on the date periods selected in the
visualizations (month, quarter, or year).
Use Time Intelligence Functions: Utilize Power BI's Time Intelligence functions (e.g., TOTALYTD, TOTALQTD,
TOTALMTD, etc.) to calculate year-to-date, quarter-to-date, and month-to-date values for sales performance
analysis.
3) How would you integrate data from 4) Your client wants to monitor individual
