This will become such an important feature to have on Pro License with the recent release of the Composite Model.
I certainly hope this will become part of Pro features very very soon.Andrew

Thanks for the feedback – we have this in our plans for the service and a future release of Power BI Report Server. I will update the status as soon as we’ve started work on this highly requested feature!

Thanks everyone for your feedback/votes!
We’re actively working on this new connector. You can find an early demo in the recording of the Power Query session at the Microsoft Business Applications Summit: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/businessapplicationssummit/video/BAS2018-2167
Please stay tuned to the Power BI blog for further announcements.

The relative date slicer (a Preview feature as of June ‘17) gets us close to this with the ’This Month’ or ‘This Year’ settings. That is a dynamic date selection that updates based on the current system date. We plan to add a ‘YTD’/‘MTD’ option to specifically select a range from the start of the month/year up to today, hopefully that’ll address the remaining requirements!

Is there any current ability to have BI filter automatically by "Recent 12 Weeks" without having to change the filter every time like this post mentions with the need for dynamic date selection?
If not, I would certainly like to see this type of option rolled into the need for a Dynamic Date Slicer. To select Recent Weeks or Months that may not fall into the normal ranges like MTD.
This would basically run like selecting "Last Week" through "-12 weeks from this week". Anything in that manner would be huge for my reporting.

Hi Paul, thanks for the suggestion! We’re working on building generic connections to on-prem SQL databases, but we can do more around connectors for GP to pull out some of the objects it uses. Anyone else thing a GP connection would help? Please add your votes!

We released our preview of composite models this month, which is a feature that lets you mix and match DirectQuery sources and import sources. Read more about it on my blog: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-desktop-july-2018-feature-summary/#compositeModels

This is the entire reason my company needs Power BI! I started using BI and now that I have access to our SQL Server, I came to find out I cannot combine the data I need to combine unless it becomes possible to use DirectQuery from 2 different databases on the Server plus mix in some imports.......

As I was testing some more, am I wrong to think Incremental Refresh can be applied to DirectQuery? It is strictly limited to Import? What about Dual within the new Composite Model release though?
