Ultimate KPI Card API License

The **Power BI Ultimate KPI Card Custom Visual** helps report authors turn important business measures into clear, action-oriented KPI cards. It displays a main KPI value together with the variance to a reference value, such as a budget, target, plan, forecast, or previous-year result. It can also compare the main value against a second or third reference value. Variances can be shown as absolute values and percentages, supported by arrows, color coding, and status indicators so users can quickly see whether performance is above, below, or on target. This offer is designed for **Power BI report authors, BI developers, analysts, controllers, dashboard designers, and business users** who need to present KPI performance in a compact and easy-to-understand format. It is especially useful for executive dashboards, mobile reports, operational scorecards, financial reports, sales reports, and reporting portal landing pages. The visual addresses a common reporting challenge: business users often need to understand current performance, target achievement, variance, and trend direction at a glance. Standard tables or charts can make this harder to see quickly. The Ultimate KPI Card combines KPI value, target comparison, variance analysis, visual status cues, and optional trend information in one card, helping users identify performance gaps and focus on metrics that require action. Typical use cases include comparing sales against budget, actuals against plan, margin against target, cost against forecast, or current performance against the previous year. For metrics where lower values are better, such as costs, defects, complaints, or waiting time, the positive and negative interpretation can be reversed. The latest version supports **Small Multiples**, allowing one KPI card per category, such as region, product, department, customer group, or business unit. This makes it easy to compare many KPIs in a compact grid while keeping a consistent visual style. The visual also supports **trend charts**, so users can see how a KPI has developed over time. Trend charts can compare the measure with a selected reference value and can be displayed as area, line, or bar charts. Additional formatting options allow report authors to configure titles, value formats, display units, reference labels, arrows, colors, target coloring, card layout, borders, backgrounds, images, and status shapes. **Basic features are free.** When advanced features are used, a watermark appears.
