Power BI Desktop version

[Planda]

Hi,

I am Power BI developer and I am having issues with Power BI desktop version support accross my customers.

I am developing solutions for multiple companies and I have a problem with delivering of the solution.

I have my own laptop which is running Power BI desktop installed from Microsoft Store (Always latest version). I have multiple customers, that have Power BI desktop installation managed by their company (usually year old versions of PBD). So when I deliver the solution to the client, they are unable to open the reports in their Power BI desktop, because the version is not compatible.

I would like to ask, how I can deal with this issue? Most of time I only use default functionalities (old at least 1 year), so I know that the PBD is supporting everything.

Any suggestions?

Thanks for help!

Hi!

I have the same problem. I already worked in several reports, and I don´t want to do all over again in an older version.

Did you find the solution?

Greetings!
