I am having a problem trying to understand how to accomplish this. I want to use one set of slicers in my Excel spreadsheet to drill down to specific information. The problem is that I have duplicated Model names under the "Intel" worksheet. The reason is that Model Name could have one or two controllers. I have created all the queries, Power Pivots, and relationships. The link to the file is available here (this is all public data) if someone is willing to take a look and provide the guideline.
PROBLEM:
Due to Model Name's duplication under the "intel" worksheet, I have created a "DUP" column to identify duplicates in my data with the "X." I thought if I made a column “RELATED -Devide by 2” in the Power Pivot “Intel” with the formula =IF([DUP]="X," [RELATED - 12 Month Volume]/2, [RELATED - 12 Month Volume])", I would be able to show correct 12Month Volume based on Volume worksheet. This is partially true. I came to an understanding that I need to use both, “RELATED - 12 Month Volume” and “RELATED -Devide by 2” depending on what slicer I am filtering with
If Filtered by FORM Factor or Vendor, I can use RELATED - Divide by 2 (Orange color as shown below).
Now, if I filter above with Controller (like X710-TM4), this is not good. For Controller Filter, I would need to use “RELATED - 12 Month Volume” (Blue color as shown below), which is NOT suitable for above
How do I accomplish this? One set of slicers and be able to drill down and show correct value based on slicer used

Never mind... I figured it out with the CROSSFILTER measure

I have a Google Data Studio dashboard that loads really slowly since it's using Google Sheets as a Data Source. I migrated the same data to BigQuery then used it as my new Data Source however, I came across an issue:
When creating a calculated field, the new calculated field is not tagged as Auto in the Default Aggregation I still have to select Sum as a Default Aggregation. This causes problems in my report. Also, it's not Blue, where normal fields are shown as green, and calculated fields are shown as Blue.
When I was using Google Sheets, I could do direct computations in the calculated fields.
Example:
Handle Time = Talk Time / Number of calls
I just create a calculated field called Handle Time, then put the formula Talk Time / Number of calls
Now, I need to create 3 separate Calculated Fields:
Calculated Field 1: SUM(Talk Time)
Calculated Field 2: SUM(Number of calls)
Calculated Field 3: Calculated Field 1 / Calculated Field 2
This is even though I already tagged them as Sum in the Default Aggregation. Can anyone help me understand what I'm doing wrong?
Solution:
A single calculated field will do the trick; the aggregation of each respective field needs to be stated explicitly in the calculated field:
SUM(Talk Time) / SUM(Number of calls)
Why the Change?
To elaborate, the change was part of the Data Modeling update on 31st October 2020; one of the benefits of explicitly stating the aggregation is that it offers greater flexibility with the ability to aggregate fields as required when creating a calculated field, for example, something like:
MAX(Talk Time) - MIN(Talk Time) / COUNT(Handle Time) * AVG(Handle Time) / COUNT_DISTINCT(Text_Field1) * COUNT(Text_Field2)
Speed
Regarding speed, where the Data Set is large and static (daily updates are fine and real time data is not required), then a Data Extract would be a good option.
Dimensions are shown as green, metrics are shown as blue. Data imported from other sources, particularly from Google sheets tend to show metrics as green but when you add them to a chart or table they get recognised as metrics and change to blue.
So I'm just starting out creating a portfolio tracker within Google Sheets. I'm using the Google Finance methods to get the stocks name and all the relevant data that I need. The only issue is that I can't figure out how to populate the specific data I need without having to manually type out the same formula's for each stock I want data for.
For example... Each row in the first column would contain the ticker symbol for that specific stock. If I bought a new stock, I would just type in the ticker symbol in cell A1 and this would populate the necessary fields such as price and so on. If I bought another stock I would essentially do the same thing but now in A2.
I know that you can get the price of a stock by doing
=GOOGLEFINANCE(A1, "price")
but is there any way to make it dynamic? something like:
=GOOGLEFINANCE(A(Row(ref)), "price")?
Any suggestions would be helpful. Maybe there's even an addon that makes this process simpler, but I'm not sure.
try:
=ARRAYFORMULA(IFERROR(GOOGLEFINANCE(A1:A10, "price")))
You just have to write the function for A1:
=GOOGLEFINANCE(A1, "price")
And then drag the little square on the cell down. It will automatically pick up the correspondant number of the row in the A column.
You can set-up your sheet to have like 100 rows used, and when you add the ticker it will automatically calculate it.
If you don't want th #N/A to show you can do it like:
=IFERROR(GOOGLEFINANCE(A1, "price"))
I have an excel spreadsheet from a Questionnaire. One of the questions was in checkbox format. The result of this question are held in a single column, and where the user has selected more that one answer, the answers are separated by comma's.
What devices do you own? Mobile, PC, Laptop, Tablet
So in a single cell I get 'Mobile,PC' when these two are selected.
I am using Google Data Studio to visualise the data, but stuck on how to create a graph that shows all the values individually.
At the minute I get a combination for every value. So a value of 1 for 'Mobile,PC' rather than a value for 1 'PC' and '1'Mobile.
Google Data Studio doesn't allow countif statements, so a bit lost.
I have tried to TRIM, COUNIF and REGEX but none have worked.
Count(REGEXP_MATCH(Device, "PC"))
I'm a bit lost on this, tried so many combinations. If someone can put me on the right track I would be very grateful
I don't think you'll be able to achieve that with a pie chart without changing your data source first as it needs one dimension (Device) and then one count metric which your data doesn't seem to support.
You could create 4 metrics like
SUM(
CASE
WHEN REGEXP_MATCH(Device, "PC") then 1
ELSE 0
END
)
And put them into a Stacked bar / column chart. You might need to create a dimension that has a single value to avoid having multiple bars/columns.
In SSRS report, I want to perform conditional color formatting where highest rank should be Green and lowest rank should be Red within a Regional Manager group as shown below
Note: Couple of options, I was thinking of includes
I am using custom code function, for deriving Min and Max value, and somehow if I can include grouping filter on Regional Manger then it could work, but don't know if that's possible
In dataset, I create extra columns for each column and store Min\max value in it. But less keen towards this option, since I have 24 different ranks and which would mean, I will need 24 different columns along with current 40 attributes
Any help would be appreciated
I know you don't want to do this for each column, but despite your misgivings it is probably the best approach. Based on my previous answer to your earlier related question you can colour the min and max for each group as follows.
Create a table with fields store, atvrank, and btvrank
Right click the row header, and select Add Group -> Row Group - Parent Group, and choose Regional Manager. Set the Group name to RegionalManagerGroup
Then set the background colour for your cells to
=iif(Fields!atvRank.Value = min(Fields!atvRank.Value, "RegionalManagerGroup"),
"Green",
iif(Fields!atvRank.Value = max(Fields!atvRank.Value, "RegionalManagerGroup"),
"Red",
"White"
)
)
This now finds the maximum and minimum within the current group instead of the whole dataset. You will need to set this expression for each field individually, but this is probably less effort than returning new rows from the database to determine the maximum and minimum for each field.
This approach will give the following output
Please seriously consider this solution. If you have further questions, please just ask.
I am developing an SSRS 2008 report which contains a number of simple charts. On the x axis I have the 12 months of this year - Jan 2009 thru December 2009. On the Y is an integer value ranging from 0 to 100 in increments of 10. I am plotting the number of times an issue occurred per month. So January could have a value of 10, February 30, etc. etc.
I would like to have a horizontal line/series that is constant and shows the yearly average for 2008. So, say the average was 30 issues per month in 2008, I would like for that line to be shown in my chart. Basically, I want to draw a straight line across the chart for that value... I can see how to add more complex series, but this seemingly simple task is getting the better of me.
Doe anyone have any idea how this could be accomplished?
Thanks in advance,
Jason
[Update] To add some further details, I am already pulling the average for each row in my dataset and have it set up as its own series. However, rather than plotting a line, this approach plots individual points for each month. While this is close to what I want, I need to join the dots so to speak. The chart is of the Error Bar (Range) variety.
Can you use a column / line hybrid chart? If so then add a constant or dynamic target value to the chart:
Design the chart.
On the Data tab in the Chart Properties dialog box, add a new data value (for example, Target).
Set the target value (see the example in Figure 9 on link this uses a constant target value of 100000 across all categories but you can do it dynamically too). Make sure to use an expression starting with = (equals). Otherwise, the value is not interpreted as a numeric value.
See the example on the MS charts page at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa964128.aspx
Add the yearly average to each row in the underlying the query. Add data series on just that value.
I managed to solve this issue myself.
As I mentioned, I was using an Error Bar graph. Right-clicking on the series of interest, I was able to change the graph type for that particular series - essentially leaving me with a chart with multiple graphs in it...particularly simple if you know where to look - which i did not! Thanks everyone for your suggestions.
