.pbiviz · 267 KB · Ready to import

What it is for

Review assets alongside liabilities and equity. Keep the two sides in view, compare balances and inspect whether their totals agree.

  • Assets on the left, liabilities and equity on the right, with aligned subtotals.
  • Comparisons and line-specific favourable or unfavourable direction.
  • Balance proof, optional composition bars, presentation mode and Excel download where Power BI permits it.

Connect your fields

Start with the example report to see the bindings in context. For your own model, use these core fields.

Balance Sheet field mapping
Visual fieldWhat to bind
LinesYour balance sheet hierarchy, highest level first.

Side / DirectionAssign each line to its side and set how changes should be interpreted.
Line orderYour ordering column, aggregated as Minimum.

Before you build

Assign the sides of your balance sheet; the visual does not guess them from account names. The balance proof checks the figures supplied to the visual. It is a reconciliation aid, not an audit.

Your report data

The visual does not send your report data to Consilium. Power BI controls your report storage, access and sharing. These packages do not request web access.

This visual requests optional file-export permission for its Excel download. Power BI policy and your confirmation control whether that download is allowed.

The working example

Start with the finance pack.

Download the example Power BI report, open it in Power BI Desktop and inspect how the visuals are set up. Use the field mappings and formatting as a guide for your own report.

The .pbix file is a report to open. The .pbiviz files above are visuals to import into a report. No Consilium account is needed.

Getting started

Import once. Build your report.

  1. Download a visual

    Save its .pbiviz file. Keep that file format; it is the Power BI visual installer.

  2. Import it in Power BI Desktop

    Open your report. In the Visualizations pane, choose the three-dot menu, then Import a visual from a file. Select the .pbiviz file.

  3. Add it and map your fields

    Select the new visual in the gallery. Bind your measures and hierarchy using the guide on its product page, or inspect the example report first.

These are uncertified custom visuals. Your organisation may restrict their use. Check your Power BI policy before importing. Native PDF, PowerPoint and subscription output has restrictions for uncertified visuals; check your intended export workflow.

Save this analysis

We will store the name and this tool’s supported calculation inputs, assumptions, labels, currency and number format, plus its identifier, save dates and your account ID. Outputs are recalculated when you open it.

Chart export styling, materiality filters, monthly review datasets and connected supporting analyses are not included in account saves.

No source workbook or chart file is uploaded. Your inputs stay in the browser until you sign in and confirm saving. A temporary draft stays in this tab for up to 30 minutes while you sign in.

Saved inputs are stored on Cloudflare in Western Europe until you delete them or your account. Deleted data may remain in restricted, encrypted backups in Asia-Pacific until their 30-day expiry. A separate encrypted recovery log keeps record IDs, protected email fingerprints and deletion or unsubscribe times for 35 days so a restore does not bring deleted data back. It contains no financial inputs. Expiry runs automatically and may not remove records at the exact deadline.
