I am creating a dashboard in AWS Quicksight. I have imported a dataset from AWS redshift. And i need to create Pivot visuals view using S name, S Result-- Values would be SI, RI these are needed to show as latest value based on S name.
EX:enter image description here
Can i get the result for above query

The example above is where I'd like to have X axis coming from dataset_1, and Value coming from dataset_2.
In PowerBI and QlikSense, this is possible because 2 tables can be related via key fields without being joined.
But it seems in Quicksight, the visual is linked to a single dataset. When I change to a different dataset, the selection automatically goes out of the visual.
Am I missing some steps or is it just not possible in Quicksight?
In QuickSight, all visuals can only make use of a single dataset. However, if you have an author/admin account, you should be able to create a new dataset joining data coming from existing datasets see Creating dataset using existing datasets.
Alternatively you can create a new dataset and join the data coming from your datasource. See Joining Data
I am trying to join Google analytics page views to a salesforce connected dataset of email campaigns via a blended data set.
As you can see from the screenshot below I have date fields in both cases, but I see now pairing key icon. I assume pairing happens automatically or not at all ?
My guess is that the date formats are different and that is why data studio can't pair them. I've tried lots of date fields from both sides and I never see this pairing key icon appear that I've seen in tutorial videos/online documentation.
Can I correct this by just setting up some kind of custom format function over one of the date fields ? Or is there likely something else wrong that is causing the join to not appear ?
If the fields you want to join on aren't the same format, you can create a Calculated Field. From the docs, emphasis mine:
You can create a calculated field in the data blending configuration. To do this, create or edit a blended data source, then:
In the data source that provides the fields to be used, in the calculation, click Add dimension or Add metric.
Click CREATE FIELD.
Type in the formula in the editor window, then click APPLY.
Steps to create a calculated field in a blended data source.
Creating calculated fields on a blended data source can be convenient when configuring join keys if the columns in your data sources aren’t perfectly compatible (for example, differently formatted dates or mismatched capitalization). It can also be useful for reports based on reusable data sources as report editors don't need access to that data source and can create calculations on the blended data source instead.
I have an SSAS 2016 cube in which I defined Drillthrough action for the Main measure group (the only measure group).
I would like to display all regular attributes of a dimension in the Drillthrough so set it accordingly on the Action screen.
The design has been deployed and the cube reprocessed with ProcessFull option.
When using the drillthrough, Excel displays the key attribute of each dimension leaving out all those configured but of the regular type.
I have not managed to find a config setting on the server or on the cube that would enable/disable/limit this feature.
Any ideas?
I figured out and thought I'd leave an answer to my question in case anyone else bumps into this issue.
When I double click a Pivot table measure number in Excel and details show, it is not the drill through action that shows the data but some builtin mechanism.
The drill through action - when configured and available - can be reached from the pivot table's measure area right click menu.
I've been working on a mock stock portfolio in Excel, and I've been looking for ways to automatically update the data, eg. stock price and P/E ratio.
I have tried using a web query to MSN Money, but that just brings up the whole stock quote across multiple cells, I want data to be updated in individual cells only. The only web query solution I can think of is if someone hosted a website where each value in the stock quote was saved on a different HTML file. I could then WebQuery to that file for each cell requiring that value. However, no website offers this.
So in essence, is there any tool on Excel 2011 Mac that will let me pull individual values from a stock quote and assign them to a single cell?
You could consider the following:
For each stock, create a worksheet which contains a web query to that stock's web page.
Next, create a summary sheet, from where you link to the cells on the individual stock worksheets which contain the data you need.
Then, with 'refresh all connections' your data on the summary worksheet would update.
Essentially what I want to do is to create an interactive dashboard using slicers in Excel 2010 PowerPivot.
I have 3 different data sets from a sql database which share "dimensions."
Incoming Orders
Sales Order Backlog - essentially what products are currently in production and waiting
to ship or invoice
Invoiced Sales
Each data set shares certain "dimensions" such as Customer, Product, Time Period, Category, etc.
I want to have a specific chart for each of the business processes and have the slicers filter each chart at the same time. When someone chooses ACME Rockets as a customer, I want all three charts to update and show only information about ACME Rockets.
I could probably accompish this wiht a union statement and then hard filter each chart only to show it's subsection of the data, but I was hoping for something more intuitive.
Can anyone point me toward how I would accomplish this with PowerPivot?
You can create four charts at once and delete one and they will all be connected to the same slicers by default. Or, if you have already created three separate charts and have one slicer you want to connect them all to:
Select the chart not connected to the slicer.
On the PowerPivot ribbon, click the PowerPivot Window button.
Click the "Analyze" tab
Click on "Insert Slicer"
click on "Slicer Connections".
Put a check in the box next to the slicer(s) you want to connect your chart to.
Repeat for each chart.
It the tables are related to the fact tables in the underlying model then it should be really easy to have shared slicers. What you have to do is "connect" the slicers representing shared dimensions to all pivottables/charts that you are interested in.
Example:
1. insert pivot chart on sheet1
2. add a shared dimension attribute to the slicers pane
3. insert another pivotchart to the same sheet (sheet1)
4. add any measure from another fact that you are interested in slycing to the values pane for that chart
5. select the slicer representing the shared dim attribute
6. click on the "Options" tab and then on "PivotTable Connections" or right-click on the slicer and click "PivotTable Connections"
7. put a checkbox on all pivottables that you want for this slicer to "slice" :) - in this example it would be "PivotTable1 - Data for Sheet1 Chart1" or something like that
Additionally check a great powerpivot resource by Rob Collie (#powerpivotpro) at http://powerpivotpro.com for examples of using a main sheet with all slicers connected to all other pivots on other sheets.

Are you using PowerPivot 2010 or PowerPivot 2012? What kind of data source is it?
I would write a union when importing my data sets. I see you merging the three data sets into one fact table with a 'status' category containing 'incoming', 'backlog', 'invoiced'. You need a field to filter on, i.e. status. This will be based on the dataset the record is sourced from.
Do you want all the charts on the same sheet? In that case, choose the 'four charts' option, and delete one of the charts. If you add a slicer, it will automatically apply to all the charts on the sheet. Filter each chart by a 'status' type as described above. Create a slicer for 'customer'. That should give you what you described above.
Shout if this didn't answer your question.
In addition to what's already been said, if you are using PowerPivot 2012, be sure to do the following:
1) Use the new diagram view to verify that all of the appropriate relationships were detected and created on data import
2) Add or update any valid relationships between the tables in PowerPivot
Note: you may have to 'fix' your source data so that the joined results conform to business requirements. You can just write a T-SQL query check to verify prior to import, or you could use SSIS with Data Profiling Task and then view the output of the profile in the Data Profile Viewer tools (listed under SSIS) in the start menu.
