Tableau LOD Explained: A Step-By-Step Guide
Tableau's Level of Detail (LOD) expressions is one of its most powerful features. It allows users to calculate values at different levels of granularity, giving more flexibility and accuracy in data analysis. This tutorial provides a step-by-step guide to help you master LOD expressions.
LOD expressions can be used to perform aggregations that are not at the level of detail of the visualization. The step-by-step guide will help you understand how to use FIXED LODs to compute values for specific dimensions, INCLUDE LODs to compute values for dimensions that are not in the visualization but affect the level of detail of the view, and EXCLUDE LODs to compute values for dimensions that are not in the visualization and do not affect the level of detail of the view.
By learning how to utilize Tableau's LOD expressions, users can better approach finding insights and analyzing data in a more accurate and detailed way.
