Report Formatting Query - SSAS Live Connection

$

Hi Community,

 

I have been using Power BI for a short amount of time and had a few reports setup and shared, using an SSAS live connection.  The setup was simple and the product is a joy to use.

 

I was recently asked to make all Power BI tables consitent with the output from another reporting tool we use and dont really have all the answers as to whether or not this is possible.  Looking around the community I can sort of piece together a few limitations with the way I am using the tools/service.

 

 - I have a table with monetary amount to 2 dp's, TY v LY.  I want to rename the columns to make better use of screen real-estate, change the formatting to thousands, and put the negatives in brackets, coloured red.  My understanding is that for the naming and formatting, I would need to create new meausres in the underlying model, this is more admin in the model but thats fine as the new measures are just pointers - but what can I do about the colouring in this situation?

 

 - If I use the SSAS 'import' feature, does this still take into account the Row Level Security we have built in or would I have to-re-specify this in the model that is now imported into desktop/service (I have PBI Pro Licenses)? 

 

What are the options here?

 

Kind regards and thanks in advance

 

Henry
