  • 2:20:23
• 

  Lecture 29.1 - Advanced Dashboards - part 1

  Tableau dashboard is a group of various views which allows you to compare different types of data simultaneously. Datasheets and dashboards are connected ones if any modification happens to the data that directly reflects in dashboards. It could be the best way to visualize and analyze the data.

  • 1:15:08
• 

  Lecture 29.2 - Advanced Dashboards - part 2

  A dashboard is a collection of different kinds of visualizations or views that we create on Tableau. We can bring together different elements of multiple worksheets and put them on a single dashboard. The dashboard option enables us to import and add charts and graphs from worksheets to create a dashboard. On a dashboard, we can place relevant charts and graphs in one view and analyze them for better insights. Now, we will learn in a stepwise manner how to create a dashboard in Tableau Desktop.

  Lecture 32.1 - Order of Operations - part 1

  In this session you will learn about the order of operations in Tableau, sometimes called the query pipeline, is the order in which Tableau performs various actions. Actions are also known as operations. Many operations apply filters, which means that as you build a view and add filters, those filters always execute in the order established by the order of operations.

  • 53:30
• 

  Lecture 32.2 - Order of Operations - part 2

  In this last video, you will understand how Tableau works it is useful to know the order in which it manipulates and filters data when producing your view. This process is called the order of operations. It helps to know the order of operations so you can use it to your advantage when using any kind of filter or level of detail calculation, or if you ever find yourself confused as to why Tableau won’t produce the view you want.
