Hi @vjnvinod,

From your description, I guess you want to import Excel workbooks that contain Power Query queries, Power Pivot models, and Power View worksheets into Power BI Desktop, right? If so , you could import the excel , from Power BI Desktop select File -> Import -> Excel Workbook Contents like the picture below. You can refer to this link: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-import-excel-workbooks.

If not, could you post me some pictures to test for your problem?

thanks for coming back, actually not, i have an excel sheet in xlsm format, which comes as a normal Pivot data from a internal SQL server.

 

To get the expanded version of the excel i always need to double click on the grand total, which will produce another excel tab, which has data at the line item levels.

 

My question was apparently on, how do i connect such excel to Power BI and get the complete extract out of the pivot table already built in.
