Microsoft has recently launched a very impressive update to its PPM Power BI Content Pack, which allows organizations to get started quickly with dashboards and reports without requiring any customizations in Project Online.

The new Content Pack contains the latest visualizations and features available in Power BI, and it comes with 13 pages supporting portfolio, resource, and project reporting.

Even though the released Content Pack represents a huge advance in the way companies are now able to report against their data, there is always space to take a step further.

Based on my real-world experience working with customers to solve their business requirements and meet their strategic goals, during this session Raphael will demonstrate how you can use 5 custom visuals that are not included in the out of the box Content Pack to create stunning reports.

You’ll learn, through a combination of hands-on lab and practice, the business requirements and use cases for each of the 5 custom visuals – and will be able to take your PPM Content Pack to the next level.

Presenter: Raphael Santos (LinkedIn profile) is the author of Excel 2013 – Módulo Intermediário (Portuguese Edition).  As a PPM Consultant, with deep expertise in providing Microsoft Project & Project Server solutions, he has worked in several projects to implement PPM tools, including countries in Latin America and Africa.

Jeffery will investigate the strengths and weaknesses of the headless architecture and examine practical use cases where the API-based approach fits.

Discussion Topics:

• How API-based (headless) provides CX flexibility for your enterprise CRM applications
• Considerations for moving towards a headless API-based architecture
• Practical real-world use cases to begin adoption of the headless API-based approach
