Whether you’re a Buddy-the-Elf type or a Scrooge, we could possibly all agree on one thing: December may be the most wonderful time of the year, but it’s also the busiest! From family Christmas gatherings, office holiday parties and New Year’s Eve, we’re still munching on...
In part one of this two-parter, I went into a lot of depth on how to use custom sorts within table calculations. I highly recommend reading that article first before continuing with the second part. In this post, we’re going to apply those ideas to illustrate...
"Which is your favorite Christmas movie?" is a question often asked during the holiday season. And an even more convoluted question, "Is Die Hard really a Christmas Movie?" I decided to try and answer those exact questions by quantifying fan sentiment around movie rankings and juxtaposing that against a widely viewed list ranking...
It’s the final Podcast Your Data! episode of the year, and we’re looking back at an exciting 2017! Robert Rouse and David Pires talk about TC17, new technologies and the year’s best data books. Plus, they give us the rundown on what exciting new tools...
2017 was without a doubt the year of embedded analytics. So, we wanted to emphasize the year’s biggest wins for our version of embedded analytics, Portals for Tableau. It may seem small, but this year we built our Portal solution into a product that can update without...
(Note: All the charts we build are included at the bottom of this article in a packaged workbook available for you to download.) Table calculations in Tableau can get complicated very quickly. But these extra little features make a big difference, such as computing specific dimensions,...
Much like Thanksgiving’s leftovers, November has come and gone all too fast. November provided us with the opportunity to experience quite a few events here in our backyard. Our consultants didn’t have to travel too far since two events took place in Tulsa, Oklahoma, just down the street, this...
I’m a Tableau certified trainer and Analytics Consultant based in Melbourne, Australia. I’ve written many articles on the InterWorks blog in order to help answer the same questions I get from my students and clients. For today’s Tableau Extended post, we’re going to focus on...
If you use InterWorks’ version of embedded analytics, Portals for Tableau, you already know how quick and easy it is to display a dashboard in it. If you aren’t lucky enough to have experienced creating a dashboard in a portal, it’s easier than cracking the screen...
(Note: This post is an expanded version of an article I originally posted on the Tableau Community Forums prior to joining InterWorks.) Tableau has the awesome capability to build bins and instantly create histograms, but it comes with a couple limitations. First, bins are not available...
What is the most valuable commodity for your finance team? You might say people. Well, let's assume you have the right people, with the right skills, in the right jobs. After that, what would be your answer? My answer would be time. Time is a scarce resource in...
Like most people here at InterWorks, I really love data. I’ve been collecting data about different aspects of my life for a long time. Several years ago, I discovered Automatic - a little device that plugs into your car’s on-board diagnostics port and logs data about...
October reigned supreme with the busiest event of our year: the 2017 Tableau Conference. If you missed the conference, we have many blogs devoted to TC17. Whether you want a keynote analysis or a social media summary, chances are it is on our blog. But let’s step...
Has everyone recovered from the 2017 Tableau Conference? We sure haven’t! From the keynotes, Data Night Out and all the informative sessions, we are still riding high from Vegas. There were so many exciting announcements to come out of TC17, it’s hard to narrow down...
During a recent project, I received an interesting question: “Can we swap what dimension is displayed in a stacked bar chart based on a filter being applied?” I’ve decided it would be easier for me to answer this question by showing you how to do it with the...
Washington, D.C. is packed with incredible places to visit. As someone who didn’t grow up near the U.S. capital, I am constantly amazed during each visit by the access to museums, culture and history I could only read about while growing up in Colorado. The trouble with...
One of my least favorite phrases currently being used in the analytics world is “data science.” This is ironic since “data science” is in my official InterWorks job title. But every time I hear the phrase, I get a little knot in my stomach similar to...
InterWorks has created several blog series targeting Tableau users, including the "Tableau Essentials" series, the "Tableau Performance Checklist" and my own "Tableau Deep Dives." These articles are among the most popular on our blog and our readers are always asking for more content on how...
Tableau isn't just a useful tool for visualising and analysing data. There's no doubt it has enabled me to improve and optimise my team, but there's another benefit I did not initially appreciate when I first began using Tableau. Coming from the world of Excel,...
It might sound controversial, but a common practice in my family (and many families throughout Louisiana) was something called "hotsaucing." What exactly is that? When your a kid acts up, you punish them by making them eat a little bit of hot sauce. The jury is...
