Terms in this definition
- ALL
A DAX function that ignores any filters and gives back every row of a table or every value of the named columns. Used within CALCULATE, it works as a modifier that clears filters, although REMOVEFILTERS states that intent more clearly where it is available.
- PPU
Premium Per User. Licensed person by person, it adds most Premium capacity features on top of everything Pro offers. Items in a PPU workspace are shareable only with other PPU licence holders, and no Fabric capacity comes with it.
- Tenant
A trusted, dedicated Microsoft Entra ID instance that stores the users, groups and app registrations of one organisation. A subscription trusts only a single tenant, although a tenant can be trusted by several subscriptions.
- Dedicated
Running Azure Functions on an App Service plan, which removes the execution time limit and offers VNet integration on Basic and higher tiers.
Related terms
- Change detection
With this kind of automatic page refresh, Power BI polls a single measure on a schedule and redraws the page only if the measure's result has changed. Only one such measure is allowed per model, and in the service it requires Fabric, Premium or PPU capacity; shared capacity cannot use it.
- Scheduled refresh
Each semantic model gets its own timetable via Refresh > Schedule refresh in the service. A gateway is needed for on-premises data, and the daily limit is 8 runs with Pro licences or shared capacity, rising to 48 for PPU and Premium or Fabric capacity.
