Pro users have the ability to schedule refresh for daily (intra day) and weekly. For some datasets, monthly is the right cadence. Can we have a scheduled refresh option that is Monthly (and lets us choose which day of the month the refresh is to occur)?

RE: Add "monthly" as a scheduled refresh option

Please add the option to refresh monthly, quarterly, but also every second week would make sense!

This seems like a simple basic request.

This is a much needed feature! I'm really shocked why this is not implemented yet.

My organization needs to update monthly. On the first day of the month or first business day of the month.

Any update on this?? I've needed this since the first time I set up a scheduled refresh. Weekly refreshes put unnecessary stress on our servers!

RE: Add "monthly" as a scheduled refresh option

This is critical if we are to keep using PBI... Amazing that it is not still an option. The idea was pushed through in 2015! What's going on???

Can't believe this request was asked 4 years ago and a lot of people asked the same thing and it is STILL NOT HERE!
