Tableau display 3 measures in 1 column - tableau-api

I am building a report in Tableau with 4 fields. 3 of these fields are measure fields. This is what it looks like.
Name Sum Profit Loss
Emmy 15 10 5
Sara 23 18 2
Dave 10 1 2
But, I want it to look like this. I want a new column called metrics that pulls in those 3 values.
Metrics
Emily 15
10
5
Sara 23
18
2
Dave 10
1
2
May I have some guidance on how I can approach this?

The easiest way to solve this is by bringing "Measure Names" to Rows
You can hide the header names of the measures as well. hope that helps

remove a lesser duplicate

In KDB, I have the following table:
q)tab:flip `items`sales`prices!(`nut`bolt`cam`cog`bolt`screw;6 8 0 3 0n 0n;10 20 15 20 0n 0n)
q)tab
items sales prices
------------------
nut 6 10
bolt 8 20
cam 0 15
cog 3 20
bolt
screw
In this table, there are 2 duplicate items (bolt). However since the first 'bolt' contains more information. I would like to remove the 'lesser' bolt.
FINAL RESULT:
items sales prices
------------------
nut 6 10
bolt 8 20
cam 0 15
cog 3 20
screw
As far as I understand, If I used the 'distinct' function its not deterministic?
One way to do it is to fill forward by item, then bolt will inherit the previous values.
q)update fills sales,fills prices by items from tab
items sales prices
------------------
nut 6 10
bolt 8 20
cam 0 15
cog 3 20
bolt 8 20
screw
This can also be done in functional form where you can pass the table and by columns:
{![x;();(!). 2#enlist(),y;{x!fills,/:x}cols[x]except y]}[tab;`items]
If "more information" means "least nulls" then you could count the number of nulls in each row and only return those rows by item that contain the fewest:
q)select from #[tab;`n;:;sum each null tab] where n=(min;n)fby items
items sales prices n
--------------------
nut 6 10 0
bolt 8 20 0
cam 0 15 0
cog 3 20 0
screw 2
Although would not recommend this approach as it requires working with rows rather than columns.
Because those two rows contain different data, they are considered distinct.
It depends on how you define "more information". You would probably need to provide more examples, but some possibilities:
Delete rows with null sales value
q)delete from tab where null sales
items sales prices
------------------
nut 6 10
bolt 8 20
cam 0 15
cog 3 20
Retrieve rows with max sales value for each item
q)select from tab where (sales*prices) = (max;sales*prices) fby items
items sales prices
------------------
nut 6 10
bolt 8 20
cam 0 15
cog 3 20

Displaying data to a map, creating a choropleth

What I would like to do is create a choropleth map which is darker or lighter based on the number of data points in a particular area.
I have the following data:
RO-B, 9
PL-MZ, 24
SE-C, 3
DE-NI, 5
PL-DS, 14
ES-CM, 11
RO-IS, 2
DE-BY, 51
SE-Z, 18
CH-BE, 10
PL-WP, 1
ES-IB, 1
DE-BW, 21
DE-BE, 24
DE-BB, 1
IE-M, 26
ES-PV, 1
DE-SN, 6
CH-ZH, 31
ES-GA, 1
NL-GE, 2
IE-U, 1
ES-AN, 4
FR-J, 82
DE-HH, 34
PL-PD, 1
PL-LD, 6
GB-WLS, 60
GB-ENG, 8619
RO-BV, 45
CH-VD, 2

It references the ISO3166-2 of a country and sub region, and the # corresponds to the amount of data points affiliated with that region.
I've seen this project on GitHub which seems to also use the same ISO3166-2 to reference countries.
I'm trying to figure out how I could modify their code to display my data points, such that if the number is higher the area would be darker, if the number is less it would be lighter.
It seems it should be possible, the first thing I was trying to do was modify this jsfiddle code, which seems to be very close to what I need, but I couldn't get it to work.
For instance this line:
osmeRegions.geoJSON('RU-MOW',
Seems to directly reference a ISO3166-2 code, but it's not as simple as just changing that (or maybe it is but I couldn't get that to work properly).
Does anyone know if I could possibly adapt the code from that project to create the map rendering I've described?
Or perhaps there's a different way to achieve the same goal?

How to Sum values of column corresponding to one column in jasper

In jasper i have one requirement like, sum all the data of the column based on another column. I know how to show sum of all the data in the column. But please suggest me for this requirement.
Emp-Category Emp-Id Salary
---------------------------------------
Cate - A 1 128
2 50
3 89
total 267
Cate - B 4 123
5 50
6 100
total 273
Total Expenses 540
So there will be many number of categories, which will be getting from database.
Please suggest me how to do this approach.
In that case, you can use groups...
You can refer to the link below for tutorial :)

Calculating MAX(DATE) for Value Groups Where Values Go Back and Forth

I have another challenge that I am trying to resolve but unable to get the solution yet. Here is the scenario. Pardon the formatting if it messes up at the time of posting.
ACCT_NUM CERT_ID Code Date Desired Output
A 1 10 1/1/2007 1/1/2008
A 1 10 1/1/2008 1/1/2008
A 1 20 1/1/2009 1/1/2010
A 1 20 1/1/2010 1/1/2010
A 1 10 1/1/2011 1/1/2012
A 1 10 1/1/2012 1/1/2012
A 2 20 1/1/2007 1/1/2008
A 2 20 1/1/2008 1/1/2008
A 2 10 1/1/2009 1/1/2010
A 2 10 1/1/2010 1/1/2010
A 2 30 1/1/2011 1/1/2011
A 2 10 1/1/2012 1/1/2013
A 2 10 1/1/2013 1/1/2013
As you can see, I need to do a MAX on the date based on each group of code values (apart from ACCT_NUM and CERT_ID) before the value changes. If the same value repeats, I need to a MAX of the data again for that group separately. For example, for CERT_ID of '1', I cannot group all four rows of Code 10 to get a MAX date of 1/1/2012. I need to get the MAX for the first two rows and then another MAX for the next two rows separately since there is another code in between. I am trying to accomplish this in Cognos Framework Manager.
Gurus, please advise.
The syntax for getting the max value for CERT_ID is:
maximum(Date for CERT_ID)
If you want additional level/s for max you can use the following syntax:
maximum(Date for ACCT_NUM,CERT_ID,Code)
In general, it is best practice to group and summarize values in report, not in framework manager.

Crystal Reports groups in multiple columns page breaking after row

I have a crystal report that I formatted to have the groups display in multiple (4) columns across the page, using the Format with Multiple Columns and Format Groups with multiple column options in the section expert.
The data driving the report is (snake draft):
round pick team name
===== ==== ==========
1 1 Charlie
1 2 Bob
1 3 Sam
1 4 Kevin
2 1 Kevin
2 2 Sam
2 3 Bob
2 4 Charlie
3 1 Charlie
3 2 Bob
3 3 Sam
3 4 Kevin
4 1 Kevin
4 2 Sam
4 3 Bob
4 4 Charlie
5 1 Charlie
5 2 Bob
5 3 Sam
5 4 Kevin
6 1 Kevin
6 2 Sam
6 3 Bob
6 4 Charlie
I want the output to look like:
Round 1 Round 2 Round 3 Round 4
1 Charlie 1 Kevin 1 Charlie 1 Kevin
2 Bob 2 Sam 2 Bob 2 Sam
3 Sam 3 Bob 3 Sam 3 Bob
4 Kevin 4 Charlie 4 Kevin 4 Charlie
Round 5 Round 6
1 Charlie 1 Kevin
2 Bob 2 Sam
3 Sam 3 Bob
4 Kevin 4 Charlie
I have 2 problems:
1) I don't need the group footer, but, if I suppress it, the groups don't display in multiple columns across the page, they just go down the page.
2) If I don't suppress the group footer, the first row of columns displays exactly like I want it, but, there is a page break between the rows of columns. So, rounds 5 and 6 appear on the next page. I have verified that all of the 'new page' options are unchecked in the section expert.
I have the "Round #" in the group header and that is showing correctly. One thing that is weird is that if I put a literal in the group footer, it shows at the very bottom of the page below each column. It's as if CR wants to use the entire page for the column height, even though it doesn't need it.
Can anyone help me out?
Thanks,
Dan
Keep the round information in the main report. Put the # in the details section and format in multiple sections (like you've done).
Move the pick/teammate information to a subreport. format as desired. place subreport in a second detials section. link main to subreport on round.
