Dear all,
Another question I can't seem to really find an answer to.
I've got some queries based upon local files and external large data sets through ODBC.
In power Query I delete unnecessary rows, do some calculations in added columns, merge various tables to enrich the local file with the data I want, and then load the one query which totals the wanted dataset as a flat table into Excel.
Obviously I create a connection only, however, should or should I not load all the data into the datamodel? I'm not creating any pivot tables from this data, so is there any use to load it into the data model?
Is there any use for the data model if you don't plan to use a pivot table?
