Data stories are about people. We make charts about customers buying things, students earning grades, investors placing trades and on it goes. The people reading and making charts also have stories to tell, but their experiences are hard to describe with numbers and simple shapes....
A common question that comes up in trainings is: "I accidentally removed the null indicator, how do I get it back (without using undo)?" Ignoring the null indicator on visualizations can often cause discomfort among end users as they may believe that something is wrong. In certain...
Many of us at InterWorks are avid sports fans, as you can see from our various blog posts and the many examples in the Viz Gallery. While these examples tend to focus a lot on football (pro or college) and various other sports, I wanted...
If anyone ever told you it’s not possible to make a dynamic fiscal calendar in Tableau, then you weren’t talking to someone from InterWorks. It may require a few steps, but as is often the case, all we need are a few clever calculations. So, what...

Scrolling through each tragic moment in...
It’s 2003, and the Red Sox haven’t been to the World Series since 1986 and haven’t won a World Series since 1918. Here, at this moment, in the 8th inning of Game 7 of the American League Championship Game against the hated New York Yankees, a...
Now that the fundamentals of Tableau Drive have been established with our previous Driver’s Ed articles, let’s talk about the four phases of Drive. These are the broad steps necessary in building an analytical culture within your organization. If these look similar to traditional phases in project...
Have you ever gotten up from your desk, walked over to the office kitchen, reached down to get coffee, only to find an empty coffee pot? If so, you personally know the inspiration behind our next installment in the Quantified Office series. At our office, we...
It’s 9 a.m., and you’ve just entered the classroom for your Tableau class, whether it’s Fundamentals or Advanced. Or, maybe you’ve just logged into the virtual classroom and are waiting for the rest of the students to show up in the chat window. How much...
While not a regular occurrence, I have come across situations where a client wants to display a hidden sheet with an action filter but wants to enable different worksheets to activate the hidden sheet. If the sheets are filtering on different fields when you set an...
Our client needed to provide external users (their customers) with access to their Tableau Server on Amazon Web Services (AWS). When it came time to discuss authentication, Active Directory (AD), while generally a good choice within an enterprise, was quickly ruled out. They needed an identity/authentication...

Even with the best planning, we occasionally end up with less than speedy dashboards. Tableau is great at crunching large amounts of data – but when you are looking at many different slices of millions of records, anything would be slow. There are many ways to improve the...
