How to use the Power BI Formula Generator

  • Describe the goal: Explain the result you want, not the function you think you need.
  • Read the layer note: The answer says whether the logic belongs in Power Query (data load) or DAX (report calculations).
  • Apply it: Paste M into the advanced editor or DAX into a new measure, then refresh.

What people use it for

  • Deciding between Power Query and DAX for a transformation
  • Cleaning and reshaping data before it reaches the model
  • Report-level measures for KPI cards and visuals
  • Date table and fiscal calendar logic

Frequently asked questions

DAX or Power Query — which should I use?

As a rule, shape data as early as possible: use Power Query for row-level cleaning and columns that never change, and DAX for calculations that must respond to slicers and filters.

Can it generate a date table?

Yes. Ask for a calendar table with the fiscal year start you use and you will get complete code.
