Dynamic KPI Threshold in Tabular or Power Pivot
I recently had an assignment to build a prototype for one of my clients, which involved in setting up KPIs.

In this article, we will walk through some customisations that you can do on Power Pivot data model to enable Dynamic KPI Threshold. The same technique applies to Tabular Model. For simplicity of sharing the source files, I have implemented this in Power Pivot. If you would like the Tabular version, please let me know :)
