A retail analyst couldn’t calculate accurate Year-over-Year growth due to incorrect filter context in Power BI. After learning DAX properly, she not only fixed the issue but also built new dynamic dashboards that saved the team 6 hours of manual work every week.

In 2022, a Malaysian FMCG company had recurring Power BI reporting errors caused by poor DAX logic.

Outcome:

Dashboard accuracy improved significantly after retraining their analysts in DAX
Performance-optimized measures led to faster refreshes
They automated advanced insights like moving averages and segmentation, reducing ad-hoc report requests by 40%

Power BI Can’t Deliver Real Insights Without DAX Skills

If you rely only on visuals and drag‑and‑drop fields, your dashboards will always hit a ceiling.

Problem: Calculations break when filters change

Solution: Learn to manage row and filter contexts with CALCULATE and variables

Problem: Users struggle with Year-over-Year or ranking logic

Solution: Learn iterators, RANKX, and time intelligence functions

Problem: Power BI dashboards lag due to heavy DAX formulas

Solution: Learn best practices for optimization using context and iterators wisely

Problem: Teams copy formulas without understanding them

Solution: Gain deep comprehension of DAX logic so you can troubleshoot, adapt, and scale confidently
