Recipe Objective - What are Calculated Fields in Tableau? Explain.

Calculated fields in tableau provide a way to create data using features/data using dataset. New features or columns can be made using calculated fields on calculations put in calculated fields. The new calculated field is added as a new feature in the dataset and is used to create analytical visualization. Calculated fields are the most used feature of tableau in developing new features.

Sentiment Analysis Project on eCommerce Product Reviews with Source Code

Steps to create Calculated Fields.

Step 1 > Connect the "Sample - Superstore.xlsx" data set.

Step 2 > Create "Profit per Quantity" measure calculated field using [Profit]/[Quantity] calculation.

Step 3 > Drag the "Product Name" dimension and drop it onto the column shelf.

Step 4 > Drag the "Profit per Quantity" measure and drop it onto the row shelf.

Step 5 > Drop "Discount" measure in color.

Our visualization using Calculated Field is Ready!
