How to Add a New Table in Power BI

Adding a new table in Power BI is a simple process. Here’s a step-by-step guide with examples:

1. Open Power BI Desktop and click on the “Home” tab in the ribbon.
2. Click on the “Enter Data” button in the “Home” tab’s toolbar. This will open a dialog box for entering new data.
3. In the dialog box, enter the column names for your new table. For example, let’s say we want to create a table for tracking sales data. We can have columns like “Product”, “Region”, “Quantity”, and “Revenue”.
4. Once you have entered the column names, you can start entering the data for each column. For example:

Product	Region	Quantity	Revenue
Product A	North	100	$1000
Product B	South	200	$2000
Product C	East	150	$1500

5. After entering the data, click on the “Load” button to load the new table into Power BI.
6. The new table will now appear in the “Fields” pane on the right-hand side of the Power BI window. You can drag and drop the columns from this table into your reports and visualizations.

By following these steps, you can easily add a new table in Power BI and start analyzing your data.
