Currently, I have a QuickBase table that is designed like the picture here: https://i.stack.imgur.com/qZeph.png
I'd love to visualize the percent of people that answered "Y" for each date in a line graph. Is this possible in QuickBase?
It looks like you are trying to build a weekly trend report. If so you could implement a Weeks table that would allow you to summarize the Total # of records from your data table that are associated to each week and also how many of those records have a value of Y. You could then created a numeric formula field on the Weeks table that calculates: [Total] / [Total answered Y] and plot that value on a line chart.
Here is a link to presentation that explains how you could create this type of table and setup Quick Base Automations for creating the records needs for your reports: https://university.quickbase.com/empower2019-course/342324

I'm trying to build a weekly cohort analysis depicted by line charts in Tableau. The problem is that all weeks line should start from 100%.
Below is the process I took :
dropping order date to columns and selecting week number
COUNTD (order id) and in rows
creating a calculated field : first purchase date{ FIXED [User Id]:MIN([Order Date])} and then
Dropping first purchase date to color field
I'm getting weeks depicted as lines (different colors) but can't figure out a way to make all lines starting from 100% point.
Here is the screenshot of what it should look like https://prnt.sc/1uugad5
Link to the dummy data where order_id is unique Dummy Data link . Any help is appreciated
Thanks
To achieve the viz, I used COUNTD([User ID]) instead of order ID.
The x axis represent the difference of weeks between the order date and the cohort date.
Finally, the percent can be found using percent of total quick table calculation and using table across.
I am trying to convert some measures that I have into dates for making a line chart. This is the data I have.

I am trying to make a line chart out of this data. But I cannot put it under a date since there are no dates in the dimensions. Any help would be appreciated.
You will need to some how reshape this data to create a single date field. You can do that out of Tableau or perhaps use Tableau prep. Your underlying data source is likely to drive that decision, you don't mention anything about that in your question.
Edit from comments:
Connect to the spreadsheet in Tableau. In the Data Source window, where it shows you all of the data in a table, select the 4 fields starting with Tuition and Fees. Then click on the drop down and Pivot those fields.
That will create 2 new fields, Pivot Field Names and Pivot Field Values.
In your workbook create 2 new calculated fields:
[FeeYear]: LEFT(RIGHT([Pivot Field Names],7),4)
and
[FeeDate]: MAKEDATE(INT([FeeYear]),1,1)
You can use FeeDate as the x axis of your line chart. Pivot Field Values is the measure to use in your line chart.
I'm not sure if you can quick question someone can provide me with an answer for.
I am trying to add a total number of records to the title of a sheet, however every calculated field I do returns "1" as they must be just counting one row not all the rows.
Tried:
TOTAL(SUM([Number of Records]))
COUNT([Number of Records])
COUNTD([Number of Records])
I would like the title to say "Incidents Active over 7 days Total 12" (or whatever the number of records in the sheet are)
Put a calculated field that simply calls Size() on the detail shelf.
Click on that field and then Edit the Table calc to define the partitioning and addressing (aka compute using) This is the trickiest part. From your screen shot, it looks like you'd want to choose Specific Dimensions, and then set At the Level to Number. You may need to experiment or RTFM.
Insert Size() into your title
To understand how this works, especially the tricky step 2, read the on line help about Table Calc, and check out some of the videos and training materials on table calcs from the Tableau Conference. Last year's are available at http://tc19.tableau.com
I'm currently struggling with a calculation I'm trying to create in Tableau so any help you can provide would be great.
Basically I have a calculated field within Tableau called [ExampleCount] which is a count distinct based on a simple Yes/No condition.
I have this information displayed on two separate sheets in a dashboard, one filtered for the current activity month and one for the previous.
What I now need to do is have another sheet with the same calculation of [ExampleCount] but showing the difference between the current/previous months.
So: [ExampleCount (This Activity Month)] - [ExampleCount (Previous Activity Month)]
The Activity month is an integer value, currently ranging from 1 - 9.
I feel like this should be a simple calculation but I've tried several different methods and have been unable to come up with anything conclusive.
It would also be good if this could change periodically.
Kind Regards,

I'm trying to build a cross tab report in Crystal XI that has dates, grouped by the month as column heading, and have 2 questions I'm trying to find answers to.
1: Is there any way to display a month even if there are no records to be summarized in that month? i.e. no orders for March, but want to display Jan, Feb, Mar.? I'm pretty sure I can create a dates table and use that spoof it, but don't want to go that route as the database is part of a Vendor's package and I don't want to get to crazy in there.
2: Is there a way of specifying or limiting how many columns go across? For example in a forecast cross tab I only owant current month and the next six months to show up. I suppose I can do a date range on the selection criteria, but that seems a bit kludgy to me.
Thanks for any answers
Short answer: No.
I've seen discussions about workarounds involving creation of temporary tables, but I've never tried any such solutions myself.
I would go with the date range on the selection criteria. You could make those dates parameters for more convenient useage. If you have sevral cross-tabs that should have different date ranges you could put the crosstabs in sub-reports.
