IS 335 – Spring 2020 – Kishore Tableau Assignment #3 (Chapter 4)
Notes:
Recreate the table of results shown below as a Tableau viz. Profit % is calculated as a ratio of profit and sales, i.e., Profit/Sales. Make sure to change as necessary the column headings and value formats by editing aliases and formats, respectively. Also remember to correctly sort the Customer Segment in the ascending order of total sales. Recreate this viz in a sheet named Q1 in your Tableau workbook that you will submit as your Assignment #3 Answer Workbook
Hint: Remember that aggregate-level calculations are different from row-level calculations. Moreover, note that that the data is sorted in ascending order in terms of total sales.
Q2 Recreate the table of results shown below as a Tableau viz. As before, profit % is calculated as a ratio of profit and sales, i.e., Profit/Sales. Make sure to change as necessary the column headings and value formats by editing aliases and formats, respectively. Moreover, ensure that department is sorted in the descending order of aggregate profit %. Recreate this viz in a sheet named Q2 in your Tableau workbook that you will submit as your Assignment #3 Answer Workbook.
Hint: You will need to use the level-of-detail calculation with the Exclude option to create this viz.

Moreover, ensure that department is sorted in the descending order of aggregate profit %. Recreate this viz in a sheet named Q3 in your Tableau workbook that you will submit as your Assignment #3 Answer Workbook.
Hint: You will need to join Orders and Returns to get the value of profit for the orders that were returned (Returned Orders). This joined data source will be used to calculate aggregate profits.
Q4 Recreate the table of results shown below as a Tableau viz. As before, profit % is calculated as a ratio of profit and sales, i.e., Profit/Sales. Make sure to change as necessary the column headings and value formats by editing aliases and formats, respectively. Recreate this viz in a sheet named Q4 in your Tableau workbook that you will submit as your Assignment #3 Answer Workbook.
Hint: You will need to use data from both all orders and returned orders data sources and then use them in this viz. No sorting should be applied in this viz.
Recreate the viz shown below in a sheet named Q5 in your Tableau workbook. Use the aggregate profit % as used in Q2-Q4 before to illustrate the trend of each department on a quarterly basis for all orders. To help model trends, apply a polynomial trend line to the viz. Note that this fitted polynomial line intercepts the maximum of each quarters’ aggregate profit percentage to provide a useful trend line. Recreate this viz in a sheet named Q5 in your Tableau workbook that you will submit as your Assignment #3 Answer Workbook.
Hint: Ensure that you are using the all orders data source.
Q6 Recreate the viz. shown below in a sheet named Q6 in your Tableau workbook that you will submit as your Assignment #3 Answer Workbook. You will need to create a parameter called “High Price Point” and a calculated field called “High Priced Product Return” for your returned orders data source. The calculation will use the newly-created parameter to find out if the price of any return in the data is greater (>) than the high price point parameter value set by the user. The results below are shown for a High Price Point = $450.
Hint: For learning how to create parameters and use them in a viz, read the material on pp. 168-177 in the Tableau book
