31 Implementing Data Models and Reports with Microsoft SQL Server Module Reviews and Takeaways Review questions Question: As a professional BI developer, what tool should you generally use to create and maintain reports? Answer: You could use Report builder, but in most cases a professional report developer should use Report Designer in SQL Server Data Tools. Question: You need to create a report in which users can view a summary of sales totals for each month of the year and drilldown into the individual sales for each month. How can you achieve this? Answer: You can create a group in the report based on the Month field, with an aggregate total in the group header. You can then configure the Visibility properties of the details group so that it is hidden by default and can be toggled by the textbox containing the Month field in the Month group header row. Question: You want to show a graphical representation of a company s profit for the year to-date compared to the target that was set at the beginning of the year. How can you achieve this? Answer: You could use a chart, but for this kind of single value visualization, a gauge is the most appropriate choice.
