Lanteria introduces the Power BI templates that can be used to improve the flexibility of the Lanteria HR dashboards. Templates are based on the Lanteria HR statistics and allow extending and customizing visualizations.

The templates are available for the following dashboard sections:

  • Core HR and Compensation
  • Absences
  • Performance
  • Learning

Connecting Data Source to Power BI Templates

The Lanteria HR timer job exports data to the SQL database in the format that can be used for Power BI. This database can then be connected to the Power BI template as a data source.

Do this for each template you will be using by following these steps:

 

1. Open a Lanteria HR template (the *.pbix file).

2. Next, click Edit Queries > Data source settings.

3. In the Data source settings dialog, click Change Source.

4. Specify the name of the SQL server and database that stores the Lanteria HR data for Power BI (it starts with ESDB_). Click OK.

5. To finalize connecting the data source, click Apply Changes.

Adding New Data

Power BI templates allow modifying existing datasets and building flexible visualizations by adding the data from different data sources.

For example, to view the Company Absence Statistics chart data by country, the LanteriaHR_Countries table is to be added to the template. To add a new table from the ESDB_* database, follow these steps:

 

1. In Power BI Desktop, click Get Data > SQL Server.

3. Now the new data can be imported by selecting a table or view from the list and clicking Load.
