Microsoft Power BI. From data to strategic decisions

In this lesson we will proceed to an introduction to the Power BI tool by first installing the free desktop version without time limits.

We will also look at possible sources of data source. Microsoft 364 gives us a lot of options and also provides us with two populated databases to start learning Power BI: a table directly built in Power BI and an Excel sheet to synchronize.

You also have the Microsoft Access file with the 8000 Italian municipalities that we will also use both to show the synchronization process and for the construction of reports in Power BI.

Find all the files and links in the resources of this lesson.

Web Prompts Generator for Microsoft 365 Copilot and Google Gemini (or other artificial intelligence tools).

Ask questions in natural language to get complex answers, including programming code (e.g., Excel macros, flow configuration in Power Automate, setting up lists and libraries in Share Point).

The promtp is designed to create the business management solution you need or want to study and return it in the form of an already formatted Microsoft Word file (margins, font, justified text, summary tables, check lists, attribution of levels to paragraphs and subparagraphs to be able to create the summary in a few clicks).

Prompt Engineering and AI Assistants

Imagine being able to interact with AI tools like Microsoft 365 Copilot or Google Gemini simply by describing what you need. This is the power of prompt engineering: the art of writing effective and detailed prompts to get high-quality, relevant answers from AI. In other words, prompt engineering is about strategically formulating the commands and questions that we will provide to a generative AI system, so as to guide the AI towards precise and useful results.

Microsoft 365 Copilot is an AI assistant integrated into Microsoft 365 apps (such as Word, Excel, Outlook, Teams, etc.) designed to help users write text, analyze data, and perform everyday tasks by combining AI with available business data. Google Gemini (part of Google's suite of AI solutions) is an advanced generative AI model that powers tools such as Google Bard and Google Workspace's new intelligent assistants, which can understand complex prompts and provide creative, contextualized answers. Both of these AI assistants, as well as other generative AI applications, can become much more effective when the user provides a well-structured and comprehensive prompt.

Writing a good prompt is crucial because quality instructions generate quality responses. A clear and detailed prompt helps the AI better understand the context, objective, and constraints of your request, reducing the risk of misunderstandings and increasing the relevance of your answers. That's where the Prompt Generator for Microsoft 365 Copilot and Google Gemini comes in: a tool designed to guide you step-by-step in creating comprehensive prompts tailored to various business or educational scenarios.

PROMPT BUILDER OVERVIEW

The Prompt Generator for Microsoft 365 Copilot and Google Gemini is an interactive tool that helps you build detailed requests to give to AIs. It looks like a form divided into several sections, with drop-down fields (drop-down menus), text boxes, and buttons, designed to collect all the information you need to formulate a complete prompt.

In the main frame of the application, you will find two main tabs side by side:

· "Input data" tab: contains the form where you can enter all the information of your scenario – from the main selections (sector, topic, declination, detail) to the apps to be involved, up to the free text fields for objectives, constraints and available data. It is the section where you build the prompt piece by piece.

· " Preview prompt" tab: shows the final result, i.e. the prompt generated based on the data entered. Here you will also find commands to copy, save or export the generated text and to manage saved prompts, as well as a source search function to collect useful references.

At the top of the page is a header with the title of the tool and a brief description of how to use it. By default, a reminder appears: "Select industry, topic, declination (focus), detail, and the apps involved. Add the other optional fields and generate a prompt ready to paste into AI apps." At the bottom, the interface could offer additional tools, such as a language switcher (to switch to an interface in another language) and the indication Powered by Riccardo Dominici, the developer who made the application.

In the following sections, we'll go over each element of this interface in detail and explain how to best use it.

Key features at a glance:

· Step-by-step guide to compiling Sector, Topic, Focus, Detail and App selection.

· Optional fields to define objectives, constraints and available data, so as to make the prompt more contextualized.

· Dynamic operational notes (for selections and apps) and built-in notepad (Clipboard) to build structured prompts.

· Automatic suggestions to enrich the operational notes related to individual apps.

· Preview , generate, and review the prompt (Generate/Update) to iterate quickly.

· Built-in source search to collect useful references (documentation and resources).

· Save , library, and export prompts (backup/import, export to TXT/Word/PDF, and print).

Checklist

✓ You know how to distinguish the two tabs Input Data and Prompt Preview and what they are for.

✓ You are clear which fields are mandatory (Sector, Topic and at least 1 App).

✓ Know where to find (and when to use) Copy/Save/Export and Source Search.

Conclusions

In this lesson, we'll look at:

- how to create a Share Point list from an Excel sheet containing financial data that Microsoft provides us (you can find the downloadable file translated into Italian in the resources of this lesson);

- how to synchronize the Share Point list with Power BI then seeing the table that is created and from which we will build the reports with interactive graphs and multiplication tables (synchronized with each other).

Main objective: Learn how to synchronize an Excel sheet with Microsoft Power BI to visualize and analyze data in real time.  The Excel sheet will be used as a data source, while Power BI will be used for creating interactive dashboards and reports. This exercise helps you understand the integration between the two tools and dynamic data management.

In this lesson, we'll do two things to tweak the Power BI data model table:

1. We will proceed to rename the fields that, in the synchronization with Share Point, Power BI has called field 1, field 2, field n by default, with names that easily identify the data they represent in order to quickly use them in the construction of statistical reports;

2. We will convert the fields containing numbers (e.g. sales price) from text format, as they first came from Share Point) into numerical format. This will later give us the possibility to set DAX (Data Analysis Expression) formulas to enrich the data model with content and display them from a variety of angles.

The exercise is to fix the format of the data imported into Microsoft Power BI after synchronization with an external source, such as Microsoft Excel. The goal is to ensure a clear and consistent visual experience and prepare data for more efficient analysis. The work includes cleaning, organizing, and standardizing fields, using the transformation and modeling capabilities offered by Power BI.

In this lesson, we'll see all the steps to build a flow using Microsoft Power Automate that will automatically update the dataset in the Power BI model after a change in or the addition of a row in the "Financials" Share Point list.

After definitively transferring the data of the Excel sheet to Share Point, this is an example of how to continue to use the same operating methods with which you have worked until now, while having the opportunity to take advantage of the enormous management potential of Microsoft 365.

In the Share Point list, in fact, we will be able to enter data in the same way as in Excel.

The exercise focuses on configuring automatic data refreshes in Power BI. The goal is to allow the student to understand how to set up a system of periodic updating of the linked datasets to ensure access to information that is always up-to-date. This is especially useful for business scenarios that require real-time reporting or constant analysis based on ever-changing data.

In the next lessons we will build a report by analyzing the Power Bi power data / set under multiple aspects by creating various visual objects: tables and graphics.

We will see how to view different customer angles, geographical areas, products and retailers.

The goal of this exercise is to learn how to download, explore, and use the "Adventure Works" instructional model in Power BI. The "Adventure Works" model is a sample dataset that helps you develop skills in using business data to create interactive and visually effective reports. The student will become familiar with the basic features of Power BI, such as importing data, creating visualizations, and interactive analysis.

In this lesson, we'll build a Power BI report page focusing on customers by geography with the following visuals:

1. Customers pie chart by state/province;

2. Pie chart customers by region of the world;

3. Table of aggregated customers by state / province;

4. Table number of customers aggregated by region of the world.

We'll see how clicking on different visuals, such as a state, province, or region of the world, will change the values in all charts and other tables.

Simply after having built these four objects very quickly based on the fields of the dataset synchronized with Share Point that we could always modify.

In this lesson, we'll build a Power BI report page focusing on customers by locations and ages with the following visuals:

1. table number of customers by age;

2. table of customers by city;

3. Customers table by state/province;

4. Customers table by world regions;

We'll see how clicking on different visuals, such as a state, province, world region, or age, will change the values in all other tables.

Simply after having built these four objects very quickly based on the fields of the dataset synchronized with Share Point that we could always modify.

In this lesson, we'll build a Power BI report page focusing on the number of products by category with the following visuals:

1. Product table;

2. Number histogram chart by category.

We'll see how clicking on different visuals, such as a product or category, will change the values in the table/chart, and vice versa.

Simply after having built these two objects very quickly based on the fields of the dataset synchronized with Share Point that we could always modify.

In this lesson, we'll build a Power BI report page focusing on resellers by world region, state/province, and city with the following visuals:

1. Table of world regions;

2. State/province table;

3. city table;

4. Table of regions of the world;

5. Histogram chart by regions of the world;

6. Histogram chart by state/province.

We'll see how clicking on different visuals, such as a state, province, world, or city, will change the values in all other tables and charts.

Simply after we have built these six objects very quickly based on the fields of the dataset synchronized with Share Point that we could always modify.
