Power BI Global Summit - My 8 steps for Accounting & Finance

Description
8 Steps to your first Finance and Accounting PowerBI Report


There could not be a bigger or more in-demand tool for finance and accounting professionals to learn today other than Power BI.

Excel will always be there to solve different problems, but PowerBI is fast gaining momentum across the accounting and finance community yet many are still slow to adopt it given it's more of an "advanced" tool for "developers".

Lance will debunk this barrier and show how in 8 easy steps almost any finance or accounting professional can develop a data model using multiple time dimensions (actual, budgets, forecasts) and deal with the financial constructs of profit and income statements.

What you will get from attending?

My personal secrets where I learnt Power BI to get me and my team started and how you can follow a similar path we all took (everyone's is slightly different).

- A highly structured approach to getting started for accounting and finance professionals but also others looking to enter into the Power BI world with a finance and accounting lens.
