Before importing this single sheet into Qlikview, I had 2 data sets, one from 2016 Olypmics and the other from 2020 in two different Excel files, I combined the sets of data into one so I could visualize this data in Qlikview.
I have two sets of Gold data since one is from 2016 and the other from the 2020 olympic results.
The problem I am having when opening the spread sheet in Qlikview, it shows the correct data but I want it to display both Gold figures instead of just the 2020 figures, I thought doing it as shown in the image would be sufficient for it to display both gold figures but it's just displaying the one set.
How can I get it to display both for each country specified? I will include my Qlikview setup since it might have relevance to my question.

I'm graphing weekly total page loads per 1000 students, which is easy enough when the pill for the page load variable is set to 'sum', and the date pill is set to 'week number.'
BUT, I also have a table that lists individual dates on which important policy changes occurred, and I want to draw those as vertical lines.
Using a dual axis, I have been able to plot the specific dates as lines, but because the resolution of the date axis is set to "week", it lumps all dates in the policy change table that occur within a single week into one, or possibly omits dates that don't land on the right date for that week, and therefore I don't get individual lines for every policy change.
weekly resolution, dates omitted
I have been able to approximate what I'm looking for by setting the date pill to 'day,' and then doing a rolling average of the page load values--but this doesn't represent the page loads in the way I need it to.
rolling sum, not the same calculation, but includes dates
I need either a way to layer two charts on top of each other, with different x-axis resolutions, or possibly the correct calculated field that gives me the straight up weekly sum of the daily total page loads for successive weeks, so I can use the 'day' setting on the date-time access but still get the weekly values I want, and then plot all dates in the policy change table.
I am not a tableau developer but i am just a user of tableau reports. My engineer is telling something is not possible so wanted to take experts suggestions and help to solve the problem.
My requirement is simple. We need to build a report in tableau with 4 columns and the last column should contain a color coded arrows (R,G,Y) representing the data trend (Up/Continuous/Down). The data will change frequently and the input source is excel sheet. My engineer is suggesting that, everytime we have to manually set those shapes in the 4th column, once the report is generated from the excel (basically from the first 3 columns only). I dont like to have a manual intervention everytime in tableau since i am not good at building/editing reports and its not a best practice to automate something.
In below picture the last column is the one i wanted to automatically generated based on excel sheets data.
My suggestion to him is to add the 4 column with data as below and in tableau bring the shapes accrodingly using some kind of a formula or so.
GC = Green continuous
GU = Green upwards trend
GD = Green downwards trend.. followed with different color codes (Green/Red/Yellow) as per data.
Is that possible in Tableau? If so any suggestions here would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Kiran
It is definitely possible, as long as you have a formula that can produce the GC, GU, etc. values. Then it is simply a matter of mapping your custom values to relevant shapes (which is a simple manual one-off step in Tableau). If built-in shapes are not sufficient, you can add custom ones. Some types of shapes can also be colored dynamically, based on another formula.
Use Tableau Help or Google/Tableau Forum to find out how to do all of this.
I have been trying to recreate a modified Sankey based on Adam's work with the American Whiskey Viz and Beatles Analysis Viz that are found here:
https://public.tableau.com/s/gallery/beatles-analysis
https://public.tableau.com/s/gallery/american-whiskey-wheel
I am trying to create the same effect on my own data set. I am not sure how Adam was able to line up the sankey portion with the bar chart perfectly. I have tried many different ID2 field configurations and varying metric fields in the Curve calculated field options with no success. I haven't been able to get them to line up exactly. I would also like my bases to start in different locations along the sankey and not all originating from the left.
I realize that the examples are working with much smaller data sets but believe that this should still be possible with my data. I have tried Business ID in my curve formula and wondering if I need to have a more generic metric in my model. Andy uses Song ID which is a number between 1 and 45. My IDs range from 3-3000. You can see in the workbook attached how I am setting up these fields to get the curve of the Sankey. Is it possible to get them to line up with the barchart at the top of Dashboard 2?
UPDATE 3/22/16:
I was able to get the lines much closer to their bars by modifying the Curve-LoyaltyID2 field. I loaded it to Public for easier viewing. Some lines are still not aligning directly to their corresponding bars though.

Thanks for any ideas you have!
I am trying to create a chart in Excel 2013 from a subset of data within a larger report. All the examples show using the headers to create the legend on the chart, but since I am just using select rows in the report, I can't utilize the headers. Is there any way to directly modify the legend, or even indirectly. I am open to any suggestions. Basically, I have a row with multiple data points that I want to graph. The title works out okay, but the legend just indicates 1 and 7 (the columns I am charting). Since I don't want to graph the entire report, I don't seem to be able to capture the column headings.
The words in the legend are sourced from the series name. You can point the series name to any cell in the spreadsheet. In the screenshot, the original series names were one, two and three. In the series definition, they got re-pointed to the cells that say blue, red and green.
Depending on your data and requirements this can be made dynamic.
Pentaho gives you the option of easily generating a PI chart using it's report designer. I have a query that can return the following values
Over Inflated
Under Inflated
Within Specification
These values will each represent a slice within the PI chart. I have two problems.
Problem number 1
I have a query returning the following,
Over Inflated
Within Specification
Within Specification
Over Inflated
Over Inflated
Over Inflated
Note that the results do not include a single value that is equal to Under Inflated. This will result in a pie chart as indicated below.
I need the pie chart to indicate to the user that there is also a third slice represented within this chart (Under Inflated). Even though the value for Under Inflated records is 0%.
Problem number 2
Pentaho gives you the option to specify the colors of the slices. I need to link the colors of the slices to a specific value. For instance Over Inflated should be displayed as red, Under Inflated should be displayed as orange and Within Specification should be displayed as green.
Is there any way in Pentaho to do this?
There is no easy way to bind colours in PRD other than by ensuring the data is in a consistent sort, and defining the colours in that order - i.e. it wont always work.
However saying that you can bind the actual data values if you use a beanshell chart processing script.
To get the 0% slice appear you just ensure your data set returns it. So the best way to do this is just to outer join from your dimensions to the actual data, then you'll always get the 3 values - even if one is zero.
If you want more/ultimate control you could move to ccc charts. PRD is moving to ccc charts in the future anyway - but unfortunately the only way to use these currently would be to link via CGG - not a perfect scenario (not least of all because that needs a running server too). But a possibility.
