Tableau Desktop delete calculated fields - tableau-api

Hi I was in the process of creating a calculated filed in my tableau desktop 2018.2 and I figured later that I no longer needed it, but i can't seem to delete it. Any solutions?
I have posted a picture of my current calculated fields.

Instead of going to the Analysis menu, right click on the field itself in the Dimension or Measures section and select Delete.

Add a Filter for Date Range option in a list

Here is a little background on the task:
My client has a sharepoint site that has a list of data. One of the columns or fields is a date field, this date is entered manually using MM/DD/YY Format.
My client has requested me to add an option where they could filter the columns by a range of dates on the webpart view.
I read this guide: https://www.nothingbutsharepoint.com/sites/eusp/pages/sharepoint-list-filtering-by-date-range.aspx and i got it to work, but it seems to be a bit buggy, meaning that sometimes the list will not get filtered by the specified dates..
Another issue with this method is that there is no Submit/Go button.
FROM: [ Text Field ] TO: [ Text Field ] [GO Button]
My client would love to have something like the example above where there are two text fields next to each other and a button that they can click to make the filter activate.
I searched for hours and hours and was not able to find something like this.
Do you guys know of a solution and if so, provide me with a link or guide, on how to achieve this problem? Thanks
EDIT:
It seems that there is a Apply Filters Button Web Part that does what i need. I added it and it seems to work Okay. I have to click Apply Filters TWICE in order for it to work.. weird huh? is there a fix for that?
FYI: i followed the guide linked above and just added the apply filters button.
Okay i fixed it,
It was because i was adding the date filter web parts to the library itself, and i was supposed to create a page for it and add my web-parts in there.
Found a solution that'll load the filters on first click for me.
In SPD, under the web part that displays the list items (XsltListViewWebPart), change these two to "True":
ClientRender="True" and IsClientRender="True"
Similar issues mentioned in this thread gave insights to button load sequences and why it doesn't render results on the first click.

Unable to create a calculated field or measure in Jaspersoft adhoc view

According to this help document
http://community.jaspersoft.com/documentation/jasperreports-server-user-guide/v56/creating-calculated-field
I should be able to create a calculated field or measure for a Jaspersoft Adhoc view. However I don't seem to have this functionality available to me since I don't have the icon required to click on to create these things. Does anyone know if this is a new feature or whether this has something to do with restrictions on functionality due to licencing or something? Is there another way to create a calculated measure that I can use as a work around considering I don't have the correct icon to enable this feature ?
What version of JasperReports Server are you in? You can chek this in the login page, on the bottom left corner there is an About Jaspersoft link. There you can also check the license type.
This feature is available only for commercial edition.
So I guess you are a customer: have you tried reaching out to Jaspersoft support?

Pentaho Report Designer for MongoDB

I just downloaded Pentaho Business Analytics to try its reporting features on a Windows 8 machine. Currently I'm trying to use Report Designer to create a report for a MongoDB datasource, so following the guidelines from the book, I'm using these steps:
Select the Data Tab.
Right Click on the Data Sets item.
Select MongoDB from the menu.
Click on the plus button to create a query
And that is the point where things differ from the book, because I get this form:
According to the book, I should be able to enter a host name, port, and have the option to select a collection, but the form I get doesn't allow me that. Does anyone face this issue, or know how to fix it?
The options are hidden; stretch the window!

crystal report cross tab disappear when edit the procedure name

I have existing crystal report which is using stored procedure to bind the report field.
NOw, i need to change this procedure to another procedure version where some extra fields are existed.
So, i have change it from "Edit Command" by clicking at alias.
ProbleM: it does not show the "Cross tab" existed in report and all other things are fine.
Please share me what could be the cause.
Thanks
Normally if you make any changes to the datasource or update the datasource, Cross tab will be resetted and all its formatting will be lost and cross may also disappear.
Check whether the fields used in cross tab still exists after updation of the datasource. If those are missing then also there is possibility of losing the cross tab.
In this case you need to recreate the cross tab.

IReport Document Has No Pages

I have encountered same problem 'Document Has No Pages' issue as described in Jasper Reports And IReport Issue. I applied the solution provided in the given link and it started working. I am stuck behind the concept. My main point of concern is, when we are using detail band and we don't give a data query it gives Document has No Pages error. As soon as we give a dummy query in data query, it starts working. Kindly note that, i am using a subDataSet for a table component. That's where IReport generates this issue. Any pointers would be helpful.
Keep in mind that This is not an error but this is how it is configured to do.
This happens when you don't have results to display in the report from the database. But still you can set option what to do in this situation.
In Jaspersoft iReport 5.6.0
1. right click the report
2. Go to properties
3. Find **When No Data**
4. Select one from the options
There you'll see some options as No Section, No Detail, Blank Page, No Data Section, No pages.
Choose the one suits you. -_(--)-_
