Introduction My second favourite challenge in Tableau, after Table Calculations, is anything with Set Actions.

The dashboard users had two different ways to calculate a goal and wanted the option to change how the calculation works for each category. Not only that, they wanted to be able to take the mixed calculations and sum them up to get …
Introduction This year it seems like most of my favorite dashboards are some version of a scatterplot.
