The first idea that came to mind would be to pre-aggregate each state and just add it to the Excel template. However, in many cases, that is not possible. To get actual data on the map from a different data source, I blended my map template in Excel with the superstore data (which ...
To use a data type of Date in our custom sort, we want to convert that date into a number. To achieve this, we will use the FLOAT function to convert it to a number; then aggregate it using the MIN function. Creating the sort by calculated field Note: This calculation may look intim...

defined by the dimensions that you are using to visualize your data. So if your marks are bars that represent months, then the level of detail at which Tableau has to aggregate the data is the month. Using our previous example, if we want to visualize Revenue at the month level, we can...
