Anyone who works with SQL databases knows stored procedures and stored procedures with parameters is so very common. That being said PBI should have the functionality of allowing a property function to define these parameters which can be selected by the users (via a Slicer maybe) which then in return retrieves the necessary results by running that stored proc from the db. This is already available in almost every other reporting tool but PBI is lagging behind despite it being so so so amazing.
