Database Reference
In-Depth Information
Development Activity
with Power View
In this chapter, we'll walk through the process of creating a basic
Power View
report.
As we learned in the previous chapter, Power View reports can be created using
Excel 2013 or directly through the browser when connected to a SharePoint site,
which has the
Reporting Services Add-in for SharePoint Products
installed.
In the following development activity, we will be leveraging the second option.
The development activity in this chapter is broken up into the following sections:
• Creating a BI Semantic Model (BISM) connection
• Opening the Power View design interface
• Creating bar charts
• Creating pie charts
• Creating column charts
• Adding a slicer
• Deploying reports to SharePoint
Prerequisites
Before you start this exercise, you will require the following:
• Access to a server running SharePoint Server 2010 Enterprise Edition or
SharePoint Server 2013 with the Reporting Services Add-in for SharePoint
Products installed
