creating customized synonyms and phrases in Q & A

[RashmitaR]

Hi,

I facing issue creating customized synonyms and phrases. For example retrieving Gross Margin related data using the word GM or Margin instead of typing the entire word. So when I type GM the system identifies it as Gross Margin and displays that data.

Also wanted to know which dictionary is power BI using , If I am entering profit in the Q & A (there is no profit table or column in my data set ) power BI shows me the revenue(Revenue being a column in my dataset) how does this take place?

@RashmitaR In PowerBI.com for your dataset you can specify featured Q&A questions which will appear as suggestions on your dashboard. See image below.

Thank you for your quick response. We tried implementing that feature earlier. my concern was regarding creating customized synonyms. As I mentioned in my post earlier how can I get gross margin even if I type GM or margin. Please let me know if you need further clarification. -Thanks Rashmita Reddy

@RashmitaR I guess you're talking about changing the way Insights services analyses typed keywords so that when you type GM it recognises it as Gross Margin. I would suggest reading below posts and see if you can find something useful there.
