Description:
This book simplifies the use of Tableau software functionality for novice users so that they can create powerful data visualizations easily and quickly. Since it is often very difficult and expensive to provide external training on BI tools, this book aims to equip the reader with the resource they need to do it themselves.Tableau Jumpstart covers the basic reporting and analysis functions that most BI users perform in their day-to-day work. These include connecting to a data source, working with dimensions and measures, developing reports and charts, saving workbooks, filtering, swapping, sorting, formatting, grouping, creating hierarchies, forecasting, exporting, distributing, as well… developing various chart types.Each exercise in Tableau Jumpstart provides screenshots that cover every step from start to finish. The exercises are based on a comprehensive sample Excel-based data source that Tableau Software (version 9) has provided, which makes it very easy to duplicate the exercises on the real software. In addition, the book:Enables readers to develop reports, queries, and visualizationsPerform data analysisExecute each function in a step-by-step mannerProvides the basic hands-on ability which can enable users to work up to more advanced and complex Tableau functionalityShows how to integrate individual development of content, such as tables/charts and visualizations., onto a dashboard for an effective presentationWhat you'll learnHow to connect to data sourcesHow to develop reportsHow to develop visualizationsHow to perform analysis functions (e.g., filtering, drilldown, sorting, grouping, forecasting, etc.)How to save visualizations in different formats and distribute themHow to develop dashboards and their contentWho this book is forNovice Tableau users, BI end users, as well as developers and business analysts.
