It would be good to be able to create multiple / separate reports in the same designer file, utilsing the same data. Currently they publish as one file, meaning that to have any as a separate report, you need to duplicate your designer file, creating double the work when having to add new datasets/make adjustments etc.

hope they put this on the top of their list!

agreed this is a must
RE: Multiple reports in same designer file
Multiple different departments using the same dataset and each department has it's own report. Every time there's a change in the database, I have to update each report on an individual basis. This is very cumbersome and error prone exercise which leads to inconsistencies in reporting.
RE: Multiple reports in same designer file
I would suggest that they offer functionality to build reports from the dataset once it's been housed on power bi. Currently it would appear that even when using content packs you effectively have to house your own 'copy' of the dataset. The idea that you have multiple versions of the same dataset does seem out of kilter with ideas around 'one version of the truth' and anything that can take this back to a single one would be helpful.

This is a must to support managed development of various reports in an Enterprise level Power BI configuration.
RE: Multiple reports in same designer file
I hope this will come very soon as in the Web Version it's already there. Unfortunately in the Web Interface a lot of functionality is missing, so I need to work with Power BI Destop
RE: Multiple reports in same designer file
I would like also like multiple reports in a designer file as I have 25 facilities and growing to maintain.
RE: Multiple reports in same designer file
This would make my life much more easier. I have lot of query work to get my Dataset. That would be very useful to create different reports from same queries and not a single enormous one
