FAQs
How does Zap prevent duplicate records and ensure data integrity?
Power BI (and Fabric) cannot enforce primary keys. This means duplicate rows from pipeline retries, overlapping incremental windows, fan-out joins, or schema errors are silently absorbed. Zap uses Azure SQL Database or Fabric SQL Database with enforced primary keys. If a duplicate tries to load, it's rejected immediately. Across hundreds of tables and hundreds of loads, this isn't a nice-to-have – it's the only way to guarantee your totals are correct.
How exactly does Zap make Power BI refreshes faster?
Each incoming ERP change becomes two warehouse transactions: one reversal and one addition, like ledger adjustments. Synchronized to Power BI via XMLA, this means add-only processing instead of full partition reloads. Power BI handles additions much faster than updates — the result is refreshes more than 5x faster, even for complex ERP data.
How quickly can we implement Zap with Fabric?
Most customers go live with financial reports in days versus months required for Fabric implementations from scratch. Our pre-built models and automated warehouse creation eliminate 80% of the implementation time. You can then expand to Fabric's data science capabilities at your own pace while maintaining the same trusted foundation.
How does Zap reduce costs compared to a Fabric-only approach?
Zap's all-inclusive licensing eliminates Fabric's unpredictable consumption-based billing. Customers typically see 60-80% savings by avoiding data engineering time, reducing consumption with our delta processing, and eliminating the need for multiple Fabric SKUs. The more complex your ERP data, the greater your savings.
How does Zap Live (Excel add-in) connect to the same data as Power BI?
Zap Live queries the same semantic model as your Power BI dashboards. One source of truth, with financial statement formatting preserved through hierarchical navigation. Finance teams build their own calculations and refresh ERP data on demand. No IT tickets.
