Tableau’s Order of Operations

2022-10-18 by Johan de Groot

The order of operations in Tableau refers to the sequence in which the software processes the data and calculations in a given worksheet or visualization.

The order of operations in Tableau is the order in which Tableau performs its various actions. An action is mostly identified as a filter, but can also be a calculation or another Tableau feature which is computed.

This is Tableau’s Order of Operations:

It shows in which sequence filters are handled with by Tableau: first extract filters, than datasource, context, dimension, measure and table calculation filters.

The ‘inserts’ on the right are calculations themselves.

Tableau Extensions are a way to extend the functionality of a dashboard to your own specific needs. Most people using extensions simply grab one of the many offered via the Tableau Exchange (free or paid).

In this post I would like to encourage you to think about another option: creating your own extension!

Top 2000 of Radio 2 – Edition 2021

2022-01-01 by Johan de Groot

It’s that time of year again… – the Visualisation of the Top 2000 of Radio 2!

One of my traditions is to visualize the Top 2000 as being broadcasting by the Dutch radio station Radio 2 using Tableau.
This time I choose a circular visualisation of the list, with a detailed/zoomed-in look at the chose title inside the circle. Changing a title can be done via the drop-down, but also by clicking in the circle (either one) or in the list of entries of the artist.

Top 2000 van Radio 2 – Editie 2021

2021-12-30 by Johan de Groot

Het is weer die tijd van het jaar – de Visualisatie van de Top 2000 van Radio 2…

De Top 2000 zoals uitgezonden door Radio 2 heb ik voor de 10e keer (geloof ik) op een andere manier gevisualiseerd met behulp van Tableau.
Dit keer is er gekozen voor een circulaire weergave van de lijst van dit jaar, met een ‘detail’ van het gekozen nummer in de cirkel. Je kunt een nummer kiezen uit het dropdown menu, maar ook klikken in de cirkel of in de lijst met noteringen van de desbetreffende artiest.
