I applied all the skills I’ve learnt into my current role and created a wow moment to my boss. I created an automated interactive dashboard and with just a single click on the refresh button, all the data is automatically updated. Highly recommend for someone looking to improve excel skills.

@komanguy 2 года назад

I followed a similar path. As a business analyst in a bank, my main tool to deal with huge amounts of data was excel. Processing files with almost a million rows per sheet was a daily routine. Vlookup here, sumifs there and you got your aggregations done. But it was cumbersome. Later, I wrote some vba macros in ms access to do all the dirty stuff of cleaning data, aggregating the data and exporting it into csv before doing analysis in excel. That was better but not optimal. One day, I was wondering if it was possible to overcome the 1 million rows limitation in excel, because I needed to create a new particular dashboard. I did some research and found powerpivot! Wow! That was the discovery of the century. It was so easy now to embed all the data in one file and do all the calculations there! Dax is so powerful. But again, archiving piles of data became tedious, so I learn how to use databases especially sql server. I created a data warehouse and linked all my excel to that database. Learned powerquery. The new challenge was to feed the warehouse daily: vba macros and tsql. Once you use power query and powerpivot, adopting power bi is just natural. Using excel can push you to learn lots of useful things but this app is so powerful that it’s difficult to drop it totally for other tools.

@LukeBarousse 2 года назад

Heck yeah, thanks for sharing this journey!

@IvoryGoonz 2 года назад

If you learned to store your Ms access tables in SQL and export only pivots that need graphs you’re done. As for excel have a look at Index function. Saw a functioning multiyears, multi clients financial dashboard working perfect with that instead of vlookup. Vlookup is fine for punctual replacement but doesn’t replace 2 mismatch queries and 2 joins.

@gatorpika Год назад

I don't think it's really an either/or decision on tools but use what is best for what you want to do. BI tools are good for repetitive stuff and automated distribution, but I use Excel a lot when I want to model more complex output that would take a bunch of coding to get right. You also tend to get a lot of data in Excel in the business so instead of importing it into a BI tool to analyze, you can just quickly pivot it straight on the source document to start looking at it. It's also good to know because it's pretty much universally available and in some companies you might not have access to the best available BI tools that will do everything you want.

On an unrelated topic, could you please share some images/videos of your workstation setup? And maybe some explanations? I noticed that it allows you to work in standing position, which is really beneficial for this type of job that necessitates being in front of the screen for several hours a day, and I was thinking about building a similar setup. Suggestion: you could do a full video on how do you cope with potential health hazards of this job. E.g. is there any physical exercises that you would recommend us?

The video was very instructive. I tried Power query two years ago but it was not a good experience. I am sure it was because of lack of experience. It is the first time that someone mention when to use each of the tools. I mean when to use SQL, python, power query, power pivot or power BI. It would be great if you could show more exemplars on each of the steps... Thanks

@parahiamin6765 2 года назад

These are the tools I think I will need to learn in the next few years... Excel - intermediate level Power Query - intermediate level Power Pivot Power BI Python SQL Server IMHO, the key to any project is to use the right set of tools and to try to future proof it with what if scenarios. PS great video!

@LukeBarousse 2 года назад

Very much agree with the last point on using the right set of tools being the key!!

@LukeBarousse 2 года назад

I recommend the course in my description. For hard-core data nerds I recommend this book to master power query, it's what I read: amzn.to/3wxD2Wm

Hi Luke, I wanted to thank you!! Your videos inspired me to study more and learn new skills! I have one question for you. I have good experience with Power Query, Power Pivot, Pivot Tables, Charts, and Functions. For my next step, should I focus on learning VBA or start SQL and then Python? Want to see your opinion since some people think VBA is not worth learning. Thank you!
