Power BI Dashboard Examples

Tawananyasha Dzenga

Hi everyone!

I’m an intern working on building Power BI dashboards for our fundraisers using the Blackbaud connector in Power BI Desktop, and I’m hoping to learn from what others have already done.

If anyone is willing to share examples of dashboards you’ve built—how they look, what pages you included, and which metrics you focus on—I’d really appreciate it. I initially wanted to have main dashboards around overall Campaign Performance, Opportunity Pipeline Movement, and Peer to peer fundraiser performance. I’m also especially curious about how you define Opportunities for the fiscal year:

Do you filter based on Ask Date, Expected Date, or Funded Date?

And how do you handle Opportunity stages or pipeline definitions at the end of the Fiscal year. If it was asked last Fiscal year but Expected this Fiscal year, where does it get counted?

Just trying to understand what has been most useful for your teams so I can build something that’s actually helpful. I have attached photos of some ideas I have been developing using our internal definitions, and I'm hoping to gather more insights from all of you.

Thanks in advance!

@Erik Leaver I remember one of the Power BI user group sessions sometime last year was where I presented a bunch of power bi that was created. Not sure if you can still find it.

I may create a post of "idea" so I have it all in one place for others in the future looking for ideas. If I do, i'll put a link here.
