If you could give readers of a report or dashboard the opportunity to comment on the figures they see, it would add enormous value.

RE: Commentary option

The commentary option (inline comments and/ or annotations) is crucial for teams like Finance but not only.

If you are looking for annotation/ commentary options in Power BI, check out the visual from xViz - https://appsource.microsoft.com/en-us/product/power-bi-visuals/WA200000183?tab=Overview. Refer to this blog on how annotations can be configured - https://xviz.com/blogs/storytelling-using-annotations-in-power-bi/

RE: Commentary option

Any update on this? Does the capability exist and I've missed it somehow?

RE: Commentary option

Need comments allowed per grain of data. For example, if I want to comment on a field in a matrix, and there is a slicer set to June 2019, that comment should only show up for June 2019. When I switch to July 2019, the report should have no comments again until they're added for that specific grain and period of data.
