    Please help me to do these conditions in Power BI (Transformations) Qualification : Only include Schedule(Task Name) = Building Permit Received Row 1 Schedule: Baseline Start Date. This should be in Black color. If there is no Baseline date, then leave the field blank Row 2: If there is no Baseline Start Date in Row 1, then Row 2 should be blank. If there is a Baseline Start Date in Row 1, then following conditions apply: If ‘Schedule task % Complete’ = 100%, then input Actual Finish Date. This should be in Blue color. If Schedule task % Complete < 100% then input Schedule: Start Date - Task. If the date is in the Past (as compared to today), it should be in Red font. If the date is in the future (as compared to today), it should be in Green font.

    Some reasons why you would bring a Power BI dataflow in Excel: 1 - Ad-hoc analysis for quickly querying data. That way you don't have to wait for load previews in power bi service 2 - Can leverage as a source for pivot tables to build financial budget models, commission models, supply chain models from one source of truth (best for a lot of manual adjustments) 3 - If you want to troubleshoot any changes in Excel Power Query before you push changes to live production 4 - Can leverage this live connection from a dataflow and send the file to a coworker who isn't as technical 5 - im sure there is some other reasons why that I haven't figured out yet :)

      you can go that route for sure. going this route is handy when you have multiple people editing within one centralized excel sheet. basically allows everyone on a team to make changes easily and that will flow to reporting
