Power BI Reports - Definitions of KPIs

Was curious what is everyones experience or preferred method of showing definitions of KPIs or other items in Power BI reports.

An example would be say we have a KPI like Commercial of Lifts Per Hour which definition maybe number of lifts per hour for properties that have have min 25,000 sq foot per address. We may also include the formula Number of Lifts / 24 / 60 as well.

In the past typically we have hard coded (not a fan) and also leverage a db to store and pull the information, 1) To put this manually on visuals in Power BI on hover, 2) We have added buttons that would do a pop up a little window showing this information. 3) We have added separate pages that pull up this information almost like a Help or Report FAQ page.

With Purview and looks to be more integrated into Fabric are there better options for a data dictionary type of information to expose on the dashboard and reports for our customers?

Curious on what some people have did and what there customers like, dislike?
