If you have been exploring AI tools at work, you have almost certainly come across both Microsoft Copilot and ChatGPT.

What is Power BI? A Beginner’s Guide
Power BI is Microsoft’s business analytics platform. It connects to your data, turns it into interactive dashboards and reports, and lets you share those insights across your organisation. If you have ever built a chart in Excel and wished it could refresh itself, pull from multiple sources, and be shared as a live dashboard, that is essentially what Power BI does, at a much larger scale.
XLOOKUP is an Excel function that searches a range or array and returns a matching value. It replaces VLOOKUP and HLOOKUP: it looks in any direction, returns an exact match by default, doesn’t break when you insert or move columns, and can handle a “not found” message on its own. If you know VLOOKUP, XLOOKUP does the same job with far fewer headaches.
