Understand Power BI
Data is everywhere: in ERP and CRM systems, spreadsheets, business applications, e-commerce platforms and cloud solutions. Yet havingaccess to data is no longer enough. To create real value, information must be consolidated, accessible and easy to understand for the peoplemaking decisions every day.
Microsoft Power BI connects all your data sources, creates interactive dashboards and delivers trusted performance metrics across your organisation. Through its native integration with Microsoft 365, Dynamics 365, Azure and Microsoft Fabric, it becomes a central hub for monitoring, analysing and driving business performance.
Power BI is not just for analysts. Finance teams can monitor profitability in real time, sales teams can track and optimise their pipeline, while executives maintain a clear, organisation-wide view of performance. The objective is simple: make data accessible to everyone, enabling faster, more informed decision-making.

A Secure and Governed Platform
Granular access control
Each user only sees the data relevant to their role. Access rights can be defined at report, workspace or even row level, enabling organisations to share data securely without ever compromising confidentiality.
Microsoft Compliance Standards
Power BI benefits from the full range of Microsoft’s security, compliance and governance standards, including encryption, access auditing and sensitivity labels inherited from your Microsoft 365 environment. This ensures your data remains protected, traceable and governed throughout its lifecycle.
Enterprise-Scale Governance
End-to-end data lineage, a centralised data catalogue and comprehensive usage monitoring ensure your data remains a controlled and trusted asset, even as access and adoption scale across the organisation.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What licences do you need to get started with Power BI?
Power BI Desktop is free and provides everything you need to design reports. To publish, share and collaborate on reports, each relevant user requires a Power BI Pro licence. For larger-scale deployments, paginated reporting or generative AI capabilities, organisations can move to a Microsoft Fabric capacity. We help you determine exactly what is needed, ensuring you invest in the right licences rather than equipping the entire organisation by default.
Does Power BI integrate with Business Central?
Yes, natively. Business Central exposes its data directly to Power BI and includes ready-to-use reporting applications covering areas such as sales, purchasing and finance. We then tailor these dashboards and reports to your KPIs, processes and organisational structure, ensuring insights are relevant, actionable and aligned with the way your business operates.
Is Copilot available in Power BI?
Yes, but Copilot requires dedicated capacity: either a paid Microsoft Fabric capacity (F2 or higher) or a Power BI Premium capacity (P1 or higher). A Power BI Pro or Premium Per User licence alone is not sufficient. We assess your eligibility and actual requirements before any commitment, ensuring you invest in the most appropriate solution for your organisation.
Do you need to be an expert to create and read Power BI reports?
Reading and exploring reports is accessible to everyone. However, building a reliable reporting foundation requires expertise in data modelling, KPI definition and access management. We work with you to establish this foundation, then equip your teams with the skills and knowledge they need to become self-sufficient.
How long does it take to create your first Power BI dashboard?
For a well-defined scope and clean data sources, such as sales data from Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, a first dashboard can typically be delivered within a few days to a few weeks. The timeline depends primarily on the quality, structure and accessibility of your source data rather than on the Power BI platform itself.
Is our data secure?
Yes. Power BI applies Microsoft’s enterprise-grade security, compliance and governance standards, including encryption, access auditing, granular permission management down to row-level security, and sensitivity labels inherited from your Microsoft 365 environment. This enables organisations to share and explore data with confidence while maintaining full control over access, security and compliance.
What support does DBE provide after implementation??
Qualiopi-certified training, ongoing support through our customer portal, continuous enhancement of your reports as your needs evolve, and tailored guidance to help your teams develop the skills and confidence to manage their own analytics independently.
