You simply cannot close the current document etc... without closing the entire application
In Power BI, you are always going to work with one document (in this case the report) or the Workbook in Excel. This report can then have multiple tabs (called pages which you would call sheets in Excel). You can not close individual pages the same way you can not close individual sheets in an Excel workbook.

But you can close the workbook in Excel and leave Excel still open.

did you read my response or my question? seriously did you actually take the time to read it? I only want to work in one project/report/document at a time. I just want to be able to close the flipping report and leave PowerBI open so I can open the next one I want to work on. That is all. Also, I simply want ALL freaking hotkeys to actually work. Alt-F(ile)-S(ave) should work dang nabbit. Ctrl-F4 should close it. Please read my question before replying. I would appreciate it.Thanks

Maybe yes am misinterpreting your questions but then again, in visual studio is it possible to close an open project and leave visual studio open?

Alt F T
Now I just learnt 1 more VS keyboard shortcut today. Probably there exists an equivalent one in Power BI.

I am going to apologize for my rough language in an earlier post. I am sorry about that. I am very annoyed with MS right now. Even though that is not an excuse. Sorry about that.

dealing with a "newer" application from the evil empire. *cough* powerBI *cough* Stupid memory hog and a half. Ok it does do easy pretty well. It also does pretty fairly well. But none of that is what annoys me. Right now the biggest annoyance is the stupid interface that doesn't accept hotkeys. Close the current BI worksheet/data you would think control F4 or perhaps Ctrl-W Nope. You have to close the entire application. Also, Alt-F-S you would think that would save. Nope Alt DOES NOT EVEN WORK! Why the heck? MS spent years teaching everyone to use the Alt Key and the Control key and now they take them away. Just annoying. But back to the closing of the current workbook. So I have to close the entire application before I can open another workbook. Or I have to have two workbooks open at the same time before I can close another one. and since this is a huge memory hog. Wellllllllll. 1 out of 5 would not recommend.

A bad data model results in bad queries. BI is no smarter than the SQL it has to generate.
