Frequently Asked Questions

1. Do I need PowerBI Pro to use the template?
   No, you do not need PowerBI Pro. The template is a .pbit file that can opened with the free PowerBI Desktop app. PowerBI Pro is required if you want to publish and share the dashboard to other users using the PowerBI Service.
2. Can I use this template on Mac OSX?
   Unfortunately, the template uses the Microsoft PowerBI Desktop app which only runs on the Windows Operating System. The dashboard can be viewed on any device once published to the PowerBI Cloud Service. You can use the PowerBI App on AppSource version of this product which does not require PowerBI Desktop.
3. How is the data imported to PowerBI?
   The purchase comes with an Excel risk register. This file is your source-of-truth collaborative document. The template pulls the risk register data from the Excel sheet hosted in either Microsoft Teams, OneDrive, or SharePoint.
4. Do I need to know how to use PowerBI?
   No, very little PowerBI knowledge is required unless you wish to customize the dashboard. The template will automatically pull in your data and populate the charts. You can edit the logo and title with a simple point & click. The template does allow full customization to your specific assessment needs for those with PowerBI experience.
