Venn diagrams are not naturally built into Tableau. The techniques we use essentially use donuts on multiple axis and precise placement based on data points. Lucidspark has a template with a 3 circle that you can check out: lucidspark.com/templates/3-circle-venn-diagram-template
Unfortunately we don’t have visibility from Microsoft on when something will move into GA. The best thing to do is keep an eye on the official Microsoft forums and community boards.

Thanks for great video. Does a digital gateway keep growing in size? I guess the question is whether a gateway serves as a connection to local SQL database or if it needs to retain the data? Is MS Fabric also considered a digital gateway?
You are welcome. The gateway simply provides the connection. It’s a standalone installed piece of software that acts as a conduit between your on-prem data sources and the Power BI service. Fabric would be the parent container for all of these things and doesn’t really come into play in this situation.
So, if I wanted to share a dashboard that I created with private data with an external client, I would not only have to subscribe to Tableau Creator but also to Tableau Viewer, right?
The Migration Assistant will allow your team to see all of the model lineage and query item references made by reports in order to quickly and optimally build the needed elements into a Power BI data set. This both accelerates your migration as well as creates a fast and efficient data set in Power BI for future Power BI reports to leverage. When combined with the Senturus Analytics Connector, your report developers can connect directly to existing Cognos FM models from Power BI so they can begin reporting in Power BI on day 1 while optimally designed and validated models are implemented in Power BI using data set design best practices and the DAX language. Senturus has both tools to accelerate and experts to mentor your migration project
@@SenturusInc thank u so much. We have requirement. Management asked us This approach where they don't have a time to build model from scratch in power bi.

@@SenturusInc I hated power bi when i first learnt it (i was v mucn into tableau) but now having come back to tableau i feel i may need to re-explore PBI as it seems to be beating it. But perhaps some companies will use both, especially the big ones.
@@AliTwaij Power BI is worth exploring. It has changed a lot in the last few years. (Years ago, Tableau was better for sure.) We recently updated our comparison chart of 50 features to take into account all the new functionality in the products senturus.com/resources/power-bi-tableau-cognos-comparison-summary/
The world has changed, star has its place, but it's no longer the only horse in town, obt has many benefits, parquet compression, columnar storage, but you have to target your design for your need
Hi there! I bumped into your video. Nice one. However, in the shown example, the dataset has been changed pretty much. In particular, the column names have become quite different, and one more column has been created (which you do not need, actually). Any way to avoid/fix these issue as I do not want to change my dataset. Thanks in advance!
This seems interesting for me. I tried to use the Senturus connector in my PowerBI dektop (2022-oct version), but I cannot find/select it. Is there a possibility to manually add this connector by myself? And if so, how do I do that? I hope anyone can help me with this. Thanks in advance.
Thanks for your question Koos. The Analytics Connector is available directly from Senturus. You can register for a free trial here senturus.com/products/analytics-connector/
a query in a report in ibm cognos in a cross table how can I get the accumulated percentage by column example column A HAS A QUANTITY.. COLUMN B IS THE SUM OF THE QUANTITY OF COLUMN A PLUS THE QUANTITY OF COLUMN B AND SO ON Status/ COLUMN A / COLUMN B / COLUMN C Closed 10 / 20 / 5 Open 15 / 10 / 10 TOTAL 25 / 30 / 15 ACCUMULATED PERCENTAGE Status/ COLUMN A / COLUMN B / COLUMN C Closed 40% / 55% / 50% Open 60% / 45% / 50% TOTAL 100% / 100% / 100%
Is Cognos Analytic worth it? It is NOT user friendly! Not smooth in navigation? No Liguistic commands only Symbol command bars hard to operate! In short, one has to do PHD in Cognos Analytic to handle it fully.
Is there a way we can create paginated report, attaching the fields on text box instead of a table. If so, can you send me an example. Most of the videos use tables. What i need is a paginated report with separeted fields? Can we do that on PBI Reports? Like a form.
