FAQPage Schema
How do I choose the right chart type for a Power BI report?

Chart selection depends on the data relationship you want to show. Use bar or column charts for comparisons, line charts for time trends, stacked bars or treemaps for composition, and scatter plots or histograms for distribution analysis.

How to design a Power BI dashboard for executives?

Executive dashboards should display high-level KPIs prominently, use exception-based red/yellow/green highlighting, show trend indicators with direction arrows, and keep text minimal with generous white space for fast insight.

What accessibility requirements apply to Power BI reports?

Power BI reports should meet a minimum 4.5:1 contrast ratio for text, use colorblind-friendly palettes that avoid red-green-only distinctions, provide alternative text for screen readers, and never rely on color alone to convey information.

Which Power BI visuals work well on mobile devices?

Mobile-friendly visuals include KPI cards, simple bar and column charts, line charts with few data points, and large gauges. Dense matrices, complex scatter plots, and multi-series area charts are difficult to use on small screens.

How do I test whether my Power BI report design is usable?

Run a usability test with defined scenarios such as finding specific information, comparing data points, and drilling into details. Target task completion above 80 percent, time to insight under two minutes, and satisfaction scores above 4 out of 5.
