I have a lot of small towns (<15.000 population) from Germany in my data set, so Tableau (Desktop 10.3 Pro Version) has no geographical coordinates for them.
For this reason I made a .csv file (CustomGeo.csv is attached) with the following rows: Country (Name), State/Province, City, Latitude, Longitude. Also I created a schema.ini with the following content:
[CustomGeo.csv]
ColNameHeader=True
DecimalSymbol=,
Format=Delimited(;)
Col1="Country (Name)" Text
Col2="State/Province" Text
Col3="City" Text
Col4="Latitude" Double
Col5="Longitude" Double
Now, after I imported the csv file into Tableau (Map -> Geocoding -> Import Custom Gecoding), I have more than 600 ambiguous cities and I don't understand why. There are big cities like Stuttgart and München which are tagged as ambiguous. Bigger cities in Germany can have more than one Postcode (PLZ).
The possibility to select the field State/Province under Edit Locations and State/Province does not change anything.
Here you can download the csv file and my data set with for geocoding important columns [hosted on google drive]:
Custom Geocoding csv
Data set
Be careful if you want to open the csv file with Excel. Excel could change the column format so the latitude and longitude data could be fucked up :)
I hope anyone can help me with that problem. I do not know how to continue.
I have the solution:
If you use the column names (Country (Name), State/Province, City, Latitude, Longitude) then you will extend an existing role. For bigger cities (>15000 population) Tableau has geo data. So if you extend the existing role with all cities in Germany you will have the bigger cities as well in your custom geocoding file. Because of that, the error with ambiguous cities will show up and bigger cities like München (Munich) or Stuttgart can not be displayed on the map.

I have a table like this:
Ticket Number
Client
Type
T123
Andy
Question
T456
Bob
Issue
T789
Charlie
Problem
I use the filters to display which tickets I am interested in, then open Excel and use
= "www.myticket.url/" & TEXTJOIN("&",TRUE,A:A)
in order to open the url to display all my tickets (in this case, www.myticket.url/T123&T456&T789)
Is there a way to display this dynamically created URL directly in Power BI rather than having to download to Excel?
You can create a measure using CONCATENATEX DAX function to concatenate the values in Ticket Number column, with & separator.
The measure could look like this (where Table is the name of the table):
URL = "http://www.myticket.url/" & CONCATENATEX('Table', [Ticket Number], "&")
Probably you will also want to set the data category of the measure to Web URL.
I am working on a Leave Tracker in MS LISTS, where in the Calendar view I want the Proxy name to be displayed.
I have searched more than 100 Links and I couldn't the answer.
Do we have any workaround for it?
Thanks for the answer in advance.
According to my research, the “Person Or Group” column is not supported in the SharePoint Calculated column
SharePoint Calculated column supports the following types of columns:
Single line of text
Choice (menu to choose from) | Single Selection
Number (1, 1.0, 100)
Currency ($, ¥, €)
Date and Time
Yes/No (checkbox)
Calculated (calculation based on other columns)
Task Outcome
External Data
Content-Type Columns
We recommend that you can create a Single line of text column to fill in the Proxy Name.
Then, you can create a Calculated column which concatenates the Title, and Proxy Name(Single line of text) columns,
Modify the Calendar view and change the "Month View Title" column to your new Calculated column.
I need to change the inventory category for a couple of account numbers and only for a couple of companies. The inventory category for these accounts are mapped based on the account number but need to be changed specifically just for two companies. I've tried to filter by the company number and then find/replace, which worked fine, but then I can't unfilter to bring back the rest of the companies. I can't change the category for just those account numbers because it is only different for just those two companies.
Lisa, Here's perhaps a simpler approach than where your current way is taking you.
If I begin with this table:
Then I add a column (Add Column -> Custom Column) with the following:
The formula uses an if statement to determine whether each row has a specific Account (Acct. 4) AND Company (Co. 8). If so, then 99 is returned as a new category value for that row of the new column. If not, then the original Inventory Category is returned as a value for that row of the new column. (Obviously, you would edit this formula accordingly, to support your account, company, and new inventory category values.)
Here's the result:
Then I could delete the original Inventory Category column and rename the remaining New Inventory Category column to Inventory Category.
Im trying to show provinces and then drill down to show cities in powerbi map (Aug, 2018 version).
My problem is it does show provinces but when I drill down to get a look at cities, it doesnt show anything.
I also changed column "city" to "place", but nothing happened.
(Note: they are Iran's province/cities, maybe this problem is related to that. because when I change for example my city "Kāshān" from province of "Isfahan" to "Redcar" or "London" it loads nicely on these two cities)
So, what is the solution?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Create a new column called "Location" or "Place" by merging the City and Province columns. You can use a comma (,) as a separator. For example - "Alabama, USA".
Then change the category of the new column to Place. This will solve your issue. The map will be plotted correctly.
I am building a student module application in Oracle Apex 5.0 and wanted to know how to display the details in oracle apex.
Something like this with two tabs on the 1 page:
on first tab, When input StudentID,
the first section will contain system_date and tutor name that has login
second section should contain student name and course desc & course year
third section is to display current semester module, if payment done or not (Y /N), markings %, date of payment.
2nd tab of the page to include all courses done for that student.
Which layout to choose (interactive grid/report) or any other.
How to add validation of date picker for the payment date so that upon input it insert directly in table in DD-MON-YY format and also that it takes system_date??
Note table:
student_details: the student name, address and personal details
course_detail table contains the courses for the semester
payment_detail table for the payment details
The sort of things you're going to want to look for are:
Region Display selector, for multiple tabs
Any type of report region to display data, and you can have multiple, and nest them as sub-regions.
You can define page items that are displayed as date pickers, and use default values to source today's date using the keyword SYSDATE.
You're going to need to understand SQL.
