We will not go into the details of how to add data to your Power BI dashboard. This is an empty dashboard but with the custom 3DBI visual preloaded. The easiest way to do so is to open the directory containing the shipped exampel dashboards and to open the empty_dashboard_with_viewer_preloaded.pbix file. 3dbi file is exported it is time to switch over to Power BI. Press the export button and specify where to save the generated.For this reason you can uncheck the “ Single Table Json Data Generator” option. We do not need data coming from the SketchUp model, such as volumes, areas, materials, … because all data of our warehouse will come from external datasources.Simply remove the default separator in the dialog to allow for concatenation without a separator. However, in this case this is not needed since we added our own dash (-) prefix and suffix already in the names of each bay. You have the option to include a separator between concatenated hierarchical ids.Objects without an instance name (and thus without an ID) will end up as static (always visible) context objects in the 3DBI model. To do so, make sure that the concatenate option is checked. Remember that in the previous step you have assigned instance names to each component on different hierarchical levels to indicate their position, level, bay and rack? All these parts need to be concatenated into a unique combination and applied to each unique pallet in the 3D model.Specify that instance names will be used to identify unique objects.With our 3D model ready it is time to export it to Power BI by using 3DBI for SketchUp. In case some racks have less or more bays than the rack component you created, you can use SketchUp’s make unique functionality to create a new rack definition and add/remove bays to/from that definition.ĥ – From SketchUp to Power BI – object identifiers. Give each of them an instance name that is equal to the label rack parameter.Duplicate and place your rack component for each rack in your warehouse.One final step now is to fill all racks on your model: Select all bays you just created and group them into a new component definition named “Rack”.In this particular case we will also add the dash (-) prefix and suffix, as such: -01-, -02-, -03-, … Give each of them an instance name that is equal to the label bay parameter.Duplicate and place this bay component for each bay in your rack. Now, it is time to duplicate this bay component and create an entire rack out of them: Select all levels you just created and group them into a new component definition named “Bay”.
