For a normal Power BI Desktop file:
HCC_Analytics_BD.pbix
For source-controlled development, prefer a Power BI Project when available:
HCC_Analytics_BD.pbip
A .pbip project is easier to inspect, compare and review because more of its structure is stored as text rather than one large binary file.
- Refresh using only the synthetic files from
data/. - Confirm all visuals and measures reconcile with the source files.
- Remove credentials, local paths and unused connections.
- Save the reviewed file as
HCC_Analytics_BD.pbix. - Upload it into this
powerbi/folder.
Use Git LFS or attach the PBIX as a GitHub Release asset rather than adding a large binary repeatedly to normal Git history.
- ✅ Confirm all data is synthetic or properly anonymised.
- ✅ Remove cached credentials, API keys, database passwords and private endpoints.
- ✅ Replace personal local paths with parameters or documented relative paths.
- ✅ Review Data source settings and clear permissions where appropriate.
- ✅ Remove unused queries, hidden tables and unnecessary columns.
- ✅ Inspect Power Query parameters and M code for secrets.
- ✅ Confirm external custom visuals and connectors are trusted.
- ✅ Review and test Row-Level Security roles when included.
- ✅ Remove private gateway or automatic-refresh dependencies.
- ✅ Scan the file with endpoint security before publishing.
This is a synthetic learning and decision-support project. It is not a substitute for legal, payroll, tax or compliance advice.
Before real organisational use, validate:
- current wage gazettes and sector rules;
- applicable Bangladesh labour requirements;
- tax-year and payroll rules;
- company policies and collective agreements;
- data privacy, access and retention requirements.
