About this Event
Day One

Adopting new technology is daunting, especially if you are coming from another platform you already know well. Many people that are learning Tableau have a background in Excel and maybe even SQL so they understand how calculations work but don't know Tableau's syntax yet.

This workshop will bridge that gap. We'll condense months of learning into two, half-days. We've taught 4,000+ students Tableau since 2014 and we'll share all the tips and tricks we've learned across many trainings and projects!

Math Functions
  • Number Functions Review
  • When to Use the ZN Function
  • The ABS Function



Aggregation
  • Aggregation Functions Review
  • W hen to Use Aggregations
  • Dealing with Aggregation Errors



Logic Functions
  • Basics of Operators and IF THEN
  • Grouping with IF THEN
  • How to Create Dynamic, Color-Changing Labels
  • Combining Multiple Fields with IFNULL
  • Meeting a Goal



String Functions
  • String Functions Review
  • Wildcard Filtering Limitations
  • Regular Expressions (REGEXP)



Date Functions
  • Calculating Differences Between Dates
  • Comparing Month to Date to Previous Month to Date
  • Comparing Year to Date to Previous Year to Date



Table Calculations
  • How Table Calculations Work
  • Comparing Time Periods Apples to Apples
  • Highlighting Points in a Line Graph
  • W INDOW Functions
  • Keeping Only Recent Transactions
  • What Does "Specific Dimensions" Mean?



Best Practices
  • Naming Calculated Fields
  • Adding Comments
  • Utilizing Folders
  • Case Sensitivity
  • Line Breaks


Requirements:
  • A Personal Computer
  • An External Monitor (strongly recommended)
  • Tableau Desktop Professional 2020.1 or later

Some experience using Tableau Desktop. You should be able to do the following:

  • Connect to a data source.
  • Understand the difference between measures and dimensions.
  • Be able to build calculated fields on your own.
  • Build a basic dashboard.


What will you get?

In addition to two half-days of instruction, attendees will walk away with a 100+ page digital manual and data files to revisit the concepts on their own later. You will also get access to session recordings for two weeks.


Where will this be hosted?

What people are saying about OneNumber and trainer Eric Parker:

"After spending a couple days working with OneNumber, we are months, no, lightyears ahead of where we would be otherwise." - A OneNumber client to their CEO.
