Add "monthly" as a scheduled refresh option
Pro users have the ability to schedule refresh for daily (intra day) and weekly. For some datasets, monthly is the right cadence. Can we have a scheduled refresh option that is Monthly (and lets us choose which day of the month the refresh is to occur)?

I would be great to have a refresh that you can set for specific monthly date, weekly, start of the month, end of the month etc. Weekly is great but that's a week from the date i start the schedule, not a set day and this is what's needed.

A scheduled refresh using the outlook calendar scheduling tool functions would be best. Not all reports need such regular refreshing and some have really irregular needs which are not met by the current scheduling tools.

Could we please get a calendar based refresh schedule, as many have already stated it has been on many wish lists for ages and could be based on the outlook calendar scheduler

Dear Santa, please may I have monthly refresh schedules for Christmas? It's been on the wish list for ages and seems so trivial.
With Best Regards, Neil (aged 39 & 3/4's)

Calendar is required to choose dates to refresh. Moreoever it should enable MonthEnd+1, ME+2, ME+3 etc options while scheduling

A calendar based refresh schedule would be great. This is one area that Power BI seriously falls short compared to Tableau.

I see this has been outstanding for a while. Like all of the above I really need a monthly option so that all dataflows are updated prior to getting in the office. Instead I have update and wait for all data before processing.
Please Please Please can this option be added -

I would like to schedule refresh "once" a month on the 1st business day of the month. Please also allow users to choose LAST day of the month. Power BI PMs, how many votes do we need to have before this feature get implemented?
