I am new to Tableau and I am trying to create a pie chart on tableau using the following sample data. Could some one help me out.
I have added Sum and date to the measures side and t1 , t2 to the dimensions side. But I end not getting any pie chart as expected.I wanted to just visualize how the sum of 100 can be shown as percentages of t1 and t2 on the pie chart
Actually it is pretty simple. you will have to rearrange your data as below.
Date Section Count
1/1/2012 t1 50
1/1/2012 t2 50
2/1/2012 t1 45
2/1/2012 t2 55
and then refer to the instructions.

I have a set of 500 numbers (range A1:T25) from 1-200 that I need to put in a pie chart showing the popularity of each number from 1-200. When I try to select all of the cells and put them in a pie chart, I can see multiple slices for each number. I even tried putting the cells into a single column.
=QUERY(QUERY(ARRAYFORMULA(TRANSPOSE(SPLIT(JOIN(" ",
QUERY(A1:T25, , 10000)), " "))),
"select Col1,count(Col1) group by Col1 label count(Col1)''"),
"order by Col2 desc")
I hope your data is not uniformly distributed—pie charts with 200 slices can be hideous!
If I'm understanding your goal correctly, you don't actually want a chart of those 500 numbers, you want a chart of how often each value appears in that set. Generate a report of that data in pairs, and chart that.
For example in a cell with 200 empty cells below it, say A30 or V1, enter:
=ARRAYFORMULA(ROW(1:200))
These are your possible values, 1 to 200.
Then next to it in say, B30 or W1, enter:
=ARRAYFORMULA(COUNTIF($A$1:$T$25, "="&ROW(1:200)))
These are individual counts of how often each A column number appears in A1:T25.
Now that your values and their 'popularity' counted out, create your pie chart from that.
I have a data set like this
Name Occupation Payment Principal Interest
Amy Nurse 100 90 15
Becky Teacher 80 100 20
Catherine Nurse 90 75 15
John Engineer 90 80 12
Tom Teacher 120 100 20
... ... ... ... ...
I'd like to create side-by-side(Payment) stacked chart:
Row: Occupations
Column1 : stacked(Sum of Interest and Sum of LP Principal) by occupation
Column2 : Only Sum of LP Payment by occupation
Can anyone give me hint how to make it?
Your data is not in the correct format for the required chart and you need to do some data prep.
Pivot all three measure fields from the data source page.
create a calculation to define the column for each data type
Build the chart as below and hide the header for column field.
One approach that avoids reshaping your data is to use the measure names and measure values placeholder fields to create the stacked bar chart.
See below
Apologies if this question is trivially easy, I'm still learning Tableau.
I have data where the variables Set and Subset are arranged by week (W1 to W52) and by Source (A or B). So if I put Week into Rows and create the calculated fields
SUM(Set)
SUM(Subset)
Rate = {INCLUDE Source: SUM(Subset) / SUM(Set)}
I get data that look like this:
Week SUM(Set) SUM(Subset) Rate
A B A B A B
W1 1234 123 567 56 45.95% 45.53%
So far, so good. But what I really want is the percentage difference between Rate(A) and Rate(B) by week:
Diff = (Rate.A - Rate.B) / Rate.B
I could do this in a second if I were using Excel or R, but I can't seem to figure out how Tableau does it. Help?
There's a built in table calculation "Percent Difference" , you can deploy it using compute using Table across and relative to previous. For that you need to have continuous measures.
Something like this will be the calculation-:
(ZN(SUM([Quantity])) - LOOKUP(ZN(SUM([Quantity])), -1)) / ABS(LOOKUP(ZN(SUM([Quantity])), -1))
Create two different for "Set" & "Subset"
I have a large excel report with information on IT incidents and I need to create a pie chart in Power BI showing the number of incidents by priority (P1 to P5). But I need to group the priorities into two groups: P1 - P3 and P4 - P5.
I have the graph made already, but I can't find a way of grouping the slices.
Any ideas?
Use DAX to define an extra column as follows:
PriorityGroup = IF(OR(Incidents[Priority]="P4";Incidents[Priority]="P5");"P4-5";"P1-3")
And use this column in your pie chart.
I have a table of data in Crystal, using the summarise feature I can add a sum total at the bottom of each column but I'd like to add the percentage calculation in brackets next to the sum total.
For example I have,
Column A 432
Column B 191
Is there a formula I can use to show "SumColumn B (SumColumnB/SumColumnA %)"?
Managed to resolve this with the code below:
totext(sum({table1.ColumnB},{table.Site}),0)&" ("&totext(sum({table1.ColumnB},{table1.Site})/sum({table1.ColumnA},{table1.Site})*100,2)&"%)"
Using the table.Site to sum each group separately.
Resulting in following output:
191 (44.21%)
