BIEscape
Tableau to Power BI

Convert Tableau calculations to DAX

BIEscape maps Tableau calculated-field formulas to DAX in the same parse as SQL. Copy measures from the Transpile DAX tab, or download the .pbip project and open it in Power BI Desktop. Hyper extracts use the desktop converter.

What BIEscape does
  • IIF → IF, ZN → IF(ISBLANK(), 0, x), IFNULL → IF(ISBLANK()), CONTAINS → CONTAINSSTRING.
  • IF / THEN / ELSEIF as nested IF; field names stay [Field Name].
  • Same upload fills SQL and DAX so you can compare warehouse views with Power BI measures.
Honest limits
  • FIXED LOD maps to CALCULATE + ALLEXCEPT / ALL; INCLUDE/EXCLUDE need worksheet grain; nested LOD is skipped.
  • The Power BI download is a .pbip project you open in Desktop, not a .pbix or .pbit. Hyper extracts use the desktop converter.

FAQ

Does BIEscape convert Tableau to DAX?
Yes for calculated-field expressions (IIF, ZN, IFNULL, CONTAINS, IF/THEN, aggregations). Convert to Power BI also downloads a .pbip project with those measures in the model.
Are LOD calculations converted to DAX?
Not yet. LOD formulas are emitted as // TODO: Review LOD logic comments. SQL transpile does rewrite LODs as windows or grain subqueries.
Where do I copy DAX?
Upload a workbook on the homepage converter, open Transpile, then the DAX tab. CLI: python cli.py process file.twb --target dax --format dax.

Hyper → Excel uses the desktop converter. Clone the repo at https://github.com/lukashalim/scapeTableau.
