Jedi Skills • Understand query caching • Force Tableau to behave: • Use multiple mark types liberally • Duplicate fields • Force local calcs: lookup(min[Field],0) • Understand 4 levels of calcs: • Row Level • Field Level (Condition/Top) • View Level (Aggregate) • Higher Level (Table Calcs)
1. Leveraging Multiple Mark Types LOD Marks Filled Maps with Marks Sales by Region with Total
1.1 LOD Marks Re-create the view below from Superstore Sales (Training).
1.2 Filled Maps with Marks Re-create the view below from Sample – Superstore Sales (Excel)
1.3 Sales by Region with Total Re-create the view below from Sample – Superstore Sales (Excel)
2. Table Calculations Dynamic Hide Multiple rankings Totals in a header PLUS: Aggregate Bins & Growth rate
2. Table Calculations Re-create this view from Sample – Superstore Sales (Excel). This view shows the monthly YOY Growth only displaying one year at a time dynamically based on a Parameter.
2.1 Dynamic Hide Re-create the view below from Sample – Superstore Sales (Excel) (Note that the Filter does not affect the % of Total in the view)
2.2 Multiple rankings Re-create the view below from Sample – Superstore Sales (Excel)
2.3 Totals in Titles Re-create the view below from Sample – Superstore Sales (Excel)
2.4 Totals in a Header Re-create the view below from Sample – Superstore Sales (Excel)
2.5 Aggregate Bins Re-create this view from Sample – Superstore Sales (Excel). Put our customers into bins based on their total spend. Normal bins work on row level data, but we need them to work on aggregate – sum of sales per customer.
3. Parameters Controlling partitioning of Table Calculations Parameters & hierarchies (Selectable drill down) Dynamic sorting by multiple rankings
3.1 Controlling partitioning of Table Calculations Re-create this view from Sample – Superstore Sales (Excel)
3.2 Parameters & hierarchies (Selectable drill down) Re-create this view from Sample – Coffee Chain (Access)
3.3 Dynamic sorting by multiple rankings Re-create this view from Sample – Superstore Sales (Excel)
4. Quick ways to get your point across Spark Lines Legends with Totals Legends with Bullet Charts Reference Lines as totals across disparate sources
4.1 Spark Lines Re-create this view from Sample – Superstore Sales (Excel)
4.2 Legends with Totals Re-create this view from Sample – Superstore Sales (Excel)
4.3 Reference Lines as Totals • Re-create the view below from Sample – Superstore Sales (Excel) & Sample – Coffee Chain (Access) • NOTE: Superstore Sales is the Primary data source, with Coffee Chain being the secondary for this sheet. Sum of Sales is shown from each data set on a shared axis.
5. Data Blending Creating Primary Group from a secondary source Attributes Open items for any time frame Performance considerations (Blend vs. SQL vs. Calcs?) Best Practices for calculations across disparate sources
5. Aggregating by a Secondary Dimension • Re-create the view below from Sample – Superstore Sales (Excel) & Sample – Coffee Chain (Access)
5.2 Open items for any time frame • Re-create the view below from Sample – Superstore Sales (Excel) & a duplicate connection to Sample – Superstore Sales (Excel)
8.0 Preview… Top N and All Other Compare two sets – customers with repeat purchases and those without Compute Profit when sales in one table and product cost in another
