There are times it is useful to calculate an inherited value from parent item to child. The target date of a feature to be passed down to the child user story and then onto the child tasks.

Azure DevOps is built around the pattern than items have child items and so a backlog view will show the items in a hierarchy. When the work items some into Power BI that is not shown. So this gives me the chance to use one of my favourite resources, DAX Patterns and their Parent-Child pattern.

Azure DevOps is full of data that management want to to report on. Adding a Power BI report is an obvious way to do this. This post is my take on how I would build the reports.
