7 Merged Ideas
Comments You should add the possibility for the user to add data to change the report.
For example : an inputbox where the user put the percentage of fees for simulations and it changes the final amount
For datasets with lots of values, it is impractical to use a slicer to down-select the data of interest. For example, say you have a customer you want to view with several related data sources.
Instead, you would be able to type in a code or name for a customer, and all of their available data setup in the visualizations would display.
Absolute must have. Needed in so many use cases to demonstrate what if scenarios and many other criteria where the user needs to interact with the data by modifying a control variable.
This would actually be super helpful from a presentation point of view, so for instance if someone in public health sector is presenting current spending and associated economic benefits for a specific intervention, they can change the spending on the fly and demonstrate the impact.
Would be really nice to have this!
A must have. This feature is available in many of the similar tools. Also, this can't be achieved by Parameters in PBI. Not even with the pre populated numbers table that can be used as a input field --> In this case, the measure can use it for very simple referencing but not for medium to complex calculations.
This would be great if this feature is added. Cuurent What if parameter has limitations
This an a variety of other data entry options are already available in the Acterys (https://www.acterys.com) visuals: https://appsource.microsoft.com/en-us/?search=acterys
This would be a very useful feature. Current What-If Analysis has some serious limitations (i.e. cannot enter any number, you need to pre-define maximum and minimum range, plus at some point, it is losing its accuracy and is rounding the numbers). Also, input fields could accept non-numeric fields, which will also be useful for the analysis/filters. Image having a possibility to include user's input in a measure - a dream come true!
A basic feature for Reporting Services among other tools, and they don´t have any idea of implementation. What a shame.
how is this different than the whatif-parameters feature already in PBI?

Thanks for the feedback! This is something we'd like to get to in the future but don't have any plans for at the moment. We suggest checking out the visual Text filter on AppSource in the interim.
