1.1 PURPOSE OF THIS DOCUMENT

This document is created with the intention to explain the internship requirement and also to fulfill
the need of the internship offer received via PSGR Krishnammal College for Women. This covers the
project from various perspectives of Microsoft, with the specialization in Microsoft Power BI, while
providing my service to ELGi Equipments Ltd, Singanallur.

1.2 OBJECTIVE OF THE PROGRAM

 Dashboard making skills i.e to be able to create a visualization dashboard for analyzing purposes
that are professional to enough to present.
 Public speaking skills i.e to be able to present the project effectively in a gathering.
 Professional work etiquette i.e to get an opportunity to learn to behave professionally at work
spaces.
 Data collection i.e to learn how to gather data on own, instead of using an already pre-owned dataset
from the cloud services.
 Microsoft knowledge i.e gaining knowledge on all the software provided by the Microsoft like
Microsoft Power Automate, Microsoft forms, Microsoft One Note etc.

1.3 SCOPE OF THE PROGRAM

 Training program for 3 months (100 days)
 Advancement in Microsoft software, especially Microsoft Power BI.
 Analyzing the company’s real life data.

1.4 ABOUT MICROSOFT POWER BI

Microsoft Power BI is a powerful and versatile business intelligence and data visualization tool
developed by Microsoft. It empowers users to transform raw data from various sources into
meaningful insights, interactive reports, and visually appealing dashboards. It is designed to make
informed decisions by analyzing and presenting data in a more accessible and comprehensible
manner. It enables us to explore, analyze, and present data-driven insights, leading to improved
business understanding and choices. The tool's continuous updates with other Microsoft products
make it a popular choice for data visualization and business intelligence needs.

6
 In the three months duration of training in ELGi Equipemnets Ltd., various projects on various
client’s requirements have been handed over. These projects were done with the usage of Microsoft
Power BI, Microsoft Forms and Microsoft Power Automate and other Microsoft softwares. The
projects were handed over by the clients, themselves which helped the clear understanding of their
needs and requirements.

After the completion of a project at our end, it is reverted back to the client after consulting about it
with our internship coordinator or scrum masters. A Scrum master means a professional who leads a
team through a project using Agile project management techniques. But, in our case, scrum masters
also work as our project manager. The project is altered accordingly if their suggestions are liked
by the rest of the team members. The project will be passed over to the client from our end. The
client, then views and analyses the dashboard. If the dashboard does not meet with the expectations of the
client, alterations will be made until it is satisfied. The project is said to be completed only
when the client’s requirements have been met. The project is then used by the employees of
ELGi Equipments Ltd. Either for their research purposes or for the company’s records.

ADVANTAGES OF POWER BI :
Microsoft Power BI offers several advantages that make it a powerful and versatile tool for data
analysis, visualization, and reporting. Power BI is preferred for the following reasons.

Ease of Use: Power BI provides an intuitive and user-friendly interface that allows both technical and
non-technical users to create compelling visuals, reports, and dashboards without requiring extensive

users to monitor and analyze up-to-date information, making it suitable for dynamic and time-
sensitive analyses.

7
Overall, Microsoft Power BI empowers users to transform data into actionable insights, make
informed decisions, and drive business success by providing a comprehensive and flexible platform
for data analysis and visualization.

DISADVANTAGES OF POWER BI :
Though there are many reasons to prefer Power BI over other softwares, it also has a few
disadvantages. They are as follows.

Limited Offline Access: Power BI's full capabilities require an internet connection, which can limit

ANALYSIS AND REPORT

The making of a dashboard consists of the following stages as follows.

 Collection of datas

 Data pre-processing

 Creating relationship between data tables.

 Collecting useful insights from the datasets.

 Creating tables for visualization.

 Creating an interactive dashboard.

 DAX functions

 Dashboard

3.1 COLLECTION OF DATAS

Dataset can be generated from various sources, including surveys, experiments,

observations, sensors, databases, and more. They are commonly used in fields such as data
science, machine learning, statistics, and business analytics to extract insights, discover
patterns, and make informed conclusions based on the data.

The first step for analyzing in Microsoft Power BI is to save the dataset in the excel
format, preferably.After changing the dataset to the preferred format, it should be imported
to Microsoft Power BI. Understanding of the data is very essential to proceed further in
analyzing field.

1
Fig 3.1.1: Chose the first data for analyzing and downloaded it in Excel format.

Dataset : Ball_by_ball_2022.csv

This is the first dataset, which contains the datas of the bowlers played in the IPL 2022.

1
 Fig 3.1.2: Chose the data for analyzing and downloaded it in Excel format.

DATASET : ipl_matches_2022.csv

The second dataset is stored in Excel format, that contains the details of the players who bowled in
IPL 2022.

3.2 DATA PREPROCESSING

Data preprocessing refers to the systematic and essential steps taken to clean, transform, and organize
raw data into a more usable and suitable format for analysis or machine learning. It's like preparing
the data before it's fed into algorithms or models, ensuring that the data is accurate, complete, and
properly structured.

Microsoft Power BI does not support datasets that consists of null or empty cells. Also, the noisy
datas in the dataset should be minimized to zero. It can be done manually, as well as using a format
re-changing option.

1
Here, we have altered the ‘Date’ column from ‘whole number’ to ‘date’ format, so that the column
can be viewed in the correct format.

Fig 3.2.1: Cleaned the dataset by choosing the right format for the cells from the ‘Columns
tools’ from the toolbar.

1
 Fig 3.2.2: Unwanted columns are deleted from the dataset. Titles are renamed according to
our needs, for easy access.

1
3.3 CREATING RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN DATA TABLES
When you have data distributed across different tables, they may share common fields or columns
that link them together. By defining relationships between these tables based on these shared
columns, you can create a unified and structured dataset that maintains the integrity of the data
relationships. This allows you to perform queries and calculations across tables seamlessly.

By creating relationships between models in Power BI, you can harness the power of data integration
and perform more sophisticated analyses that leverage data from various sources and tables. This is
essential for building comprehensive and meaningful reports and dashboards that provide valuable
insights to users.

Fig 3.3.1: One-to-many and many-to-one relationships are created between the tables.

1
3.4 COLLECTING USEFUL INSIGHTS FROM THE DATA

In Microsoft Power BI, collecting useful insights from data refers to the process of analyzing and
visualizing data to extract valuable and actionable information using the tools and features provided by
the Power BI platform. Power BI is designed to help the users to transform raw data into meaningful
insights and reports, enabling data-driven decision-making.

Here, we have selected a particular IPL team for gaining the insights only about it.

Fig 3.4.1: Selecting the required data that are needed, to analyze.

1
 Fig 3.4.2: Only the needed IPL team’s data have been showed.

3.5 CREATING TABLES FOR VISUALIZING

By creating tables for Power BI, you are also essentially building a structured foundation for your
data analysis and visualization efforts. This organized structure enables you to explore insights, create
reports, design visualizations, and build interactive dashboards that convey meaningful information to
your audience.

Here, numerous visualizations tools can be encountered, since Microsoft Power BI offers numerous
options for its users to choose from.

1
STACKED BAR CHART
A stacked bar chart is a type of data visualization used in Power BI and other data analysis tools to
display the composition of a whole by breaking it down into smaller categories. It's particularly useful
when you want to show how different components contribute to the total value across different
groups or categories.

Fig 3.5.1: Stacked bar chart is used for visualizing matches won with respect to its venue

DONUT CHART
A donut chart in Power BI is a type of data visualization that displays data as a circular chart with a
hole in the center, resembling a donut. It's a variant of the more common pie chart. Donut charts are
useful for visualizing parts of a whole and showing the distribution of data across categories. They
provide a quick and easy way to understand the proportions of different categories relative to the
whole dataset.

2
 Fig 3.5.2: Donut chart is used for visualizing matches won with respect to results.

SLICERS
Slicers provide a dynamic way to filter data, making it easier for users to explore and analyze specific
subsets of information without having to create complex filters or queries. They enhance the
interactivity and user experience of your Power BI reports.

Here, slicers play the major role, as they are interactive with the rest of the charts and the slicers
enables the end-user to serve as a selective option.

By selecting their preferences with the help of this slicer tool, the data changes with respect to the
selection.

To be more clear, if the end-users selects KL Pandya, the innings, runs, wins, losses and other factors
with respect to Pl Pandya can be seen changing on the dashboard. It is called as interactive dashboard.

2
 Fig 3.5.3: Slicer is used for visualizing the IPL player - KL Pandya.

CHARTS
Charts are a crucial component of creating compelling and informative reports and dashboards.
Power BI offers a variety of chart types to choose from, each suited for different types of data and
analytical needs. Charts are used here, for the purpose of showing the users the summarized quotients
of the data according to the title mentioned in the box.

2
 Fig 3.5.4: Charts is used to summarize the total runs taken by a player selected.

3.6 CREATING AN INTERACTIVE DASHBOARD

Power BI enables its users to create an interactive dashboard. This can be optional, which
means that it can be turned off or on. The best part of this is that, they can be done for
each tables, that are in the same sheet of the dashboard. This gives the users to perform
various analytical operations and present them in the same sheet, instead of showing
them in different sheets. This also saves space and time. This makes the dashboard
professional.

Here, for IPL Analysis dashboard, I have set the interactions in two different places. It is
created with the intention to distinguish batter and bowler statistics, since I have used the
slicer for the sheet, as a whole. This can be explained with the image.

2
 Fig 3.6.1: The interactions between the tables are edited.

From the above image, you can see that the datas of the player statistics of ‘MM Ali’
does not affect the player statistics of ‘VG Arora’, even though they are in the same
sheet.

3.7 DAX FUNCTIONS

DAX, or Data Analysis Expressions, is a powerful formula and query language used in Microsoft
Power BI and other Microsoft tools like Excel and SQL Server Analysis Services.

DAX is specifically designed for working with data models, performing calculations, creating
custom measures and calculated columns, and querying and transforming data. It plays a crucial role
in enhancing the functionality and analytical capabilities of Power BI reports and dashboards.

Here, DAX functions, also known as Data Analysis Expressions also played a vital role. The dataset
which has been used here does not provide us with the title winner, economy of the striker, bowling
strike rate or the average of the bowler.

2
But, however, these can be found out with the help of formulas. That is when DAX functions come
hand-in-hand.

Fig 3.7.1: DAX is used to calculate the average runs given by the bowler.

2
Fig 3.7.2: DAX is used to calculate the bowling strike rate of the bowlers.

Fig 3.7.3: DAX is calculate the economy of the bowlers.

2
Fig 3.7.4: DAX is find out the matches won, with respect to the toss decision.

3.8 DASHBOARD

A dashboard is a visual and interactive canvas that brings together various reports, visuals, and
data visualizations into a single unified view.

Dashboards provide a consolidated overview of key performance indicators (KPIs), metrics,

and insights, allowing users to quickly assess the state of their business, analyze trends, and
make informed decisions. Dashboards are a fundamental component of Power BI's data
presentation and analysis capabilities.Power BI dashboards offer a centralized and dynamic way
to monitor and analyze data, making it easier for users to stay informed, make data-driven
decisions, and collaborate effectively.

Here, dashboard is created by using the IPL 2022 as the dataset, which consists of bowlers and
ball by ball datas as well.Visualizing is made with the help of charts, slicers, donut charts,
graphs and stacked bar chart, which are the tools offered by Microsoft Power BI.

softwares such as Microsoft Forms, Microsoft Power BI, Microsoft Power Automate and came to
know about the business sector and different department that mainly aims towards the achievement
of goal and profit maximisation and mainly to increase their employee effectiveness.

I have acquired knowledge and communication skills with strangers and learned many new things
about the working processes engaged in a company. The live project helped me in gaining insights
in day- to-day activities of organization. My training ELGi EQUIPMENTS LTD. was a great
experience that I gained. I consider myself grateful to learn from the best.

The Company motivates every individual employee with non-monetary benefits and as its centralized
communication, every employee follows their session of order and follows their duty. Absenteeism
was very less in the organization as employees are interested in working. Employee turnover rate was
also seen less because organization had good trust and goodwill among workers.

The workers were hard working and sincere and also satisfied. Employees are having co-ordination,
team work, good contact, relationship and communication with the interns. The
employer and employee’s relationship are good and understandable and learned the different facets
of working within an established company.
