Power BI Migration Masterclass: Fixing Modeling & Rebuild Challenges

Migrating reports from SAP BusinessObjects, Cognos, Tableau, or Qlik to Power BI is rarely straightforward. Many initiatives lose momentum when teams must redesign complex data models, recreate high-fidelity reports, and meet established business expectations in a new environment. 

This masterclass focuses on the practical hurdles organizations face when transitioning legacy BI platforms to Power BI — and how to deliver scalable, production-ready reporting without excessive complexity or rework. 

Agenda 

1. Why Power BI Migrations Stall
   Understand the gap between “data available in Power BI” and reports that business users actually trust and adopt. 
2. Building a Scalable Data Model
   Strategies for handling large datasets and complex logic (FX, allocations, scenarios) while keeping the semantic model lean and performant. 
3. Rebuilding Complex Legacy Reports
   How to recreate financial statements, operational reports, and dense dashboards while preserving structure, accuracy, and usability. 
4. Implementation & Rollout Considerations
   Key factors for organization-wide success, including licensing, access models, governance, and distribution to SFTP or on-premises shares.
