Analyze the Quality of Your Data with Power Query:

Power Query: Power Query is a data cleansing automation tool that is now immediately included in Excel's Get & Transform Data group on the Data tab. You can link to tables or data sources inside Excel files and then construct clean-up rules with a single push of a button. You may opt to create these rules and generate them using menus/forms in the order you want them to happen. Splitting first and last names into distinct columns, conducting calculations, eliminating blank rows, etc., are just a few examples. Once you've generated all of your rules, you may save them and repeat them anytime you like. The progress of Power Query, which debuted with Excel 2010's release, has been nothing short of astounding. You may use this tool to import data into Excel from a variety of external sources of data, including the databases that support the majority of accounting software. More significantly, you can utilize Power Query to modify your data such that it becomes more helpful to you. These changes might involve, among other things, removing unnecessary data columns, combining columns, filtering and sorting, and adding user-defined calculations as part of the query. Power Query's ability to automatically examine your data for quality concerns like completeness and correctness is a recent development. You can immediately identify possible issue areas using this functionality, such as incorrect data, missing entries, and even duplicated entries. Check the Column distribution, Column quality, and Column profile boxes on the Power Query Editor's view tab to make use of this feature. Moreover, clicking on any specific column in the query displays a more thorough view of data, which includes a value distribution graph and statistics for that specific column. Microsoft seems to go all-in about what they term its "Power" programs in the latter half of the last decade. These are mostly cloud-based programs that can simply import data from other sources (such as databases or webpages) and run automated procedures to produce a clean final product. Take survey findings, combine them with data of sales, and compile them into a monthly display that your Sales VPs may access on their mobile devices. These Power Applications are all about the capacity to channel in all kinds of data from apps and automate the joining and cleansing and of that data. This is certainly a talent that organizations will be searching for in the coming years, and Excel users can hop right in and acquire quite quickly with a little effort. Power Query, as well as Power BI, are the 2 major functions of excel that you should be focusing on. There's a lot of demand for people with these skill sets right now.

Power BI: Power BI (Business Intelligence) is a specialized dashboard-building tool. It makes it simple to link to third-party sources of data like Google Analytics, Salesforce, and social media to get real-time data. From there, you can use a variety of dashboard modules (such as slicers and charts) to create any kind of final dashboard you can imagine.
