Learn Tableau by Working on Exciting Dashboards - Tableau Generated Fields

This tutorial explains Tableau's generated fields, including Order Count, Measure Name, Measure Value, and Geo fields like Latitude and Longitude. It covers how these fields are used in data visualization and how they are generated based on the data source. The tutorial also demonstrates how to manipulate these fields within Tableau to enhance data analysis.

Which of the following is NOT a Tableau generated field mentioned in the tutorial?

• Data Type

• Longitude

• Latitude

• Measure Name

What does the 'Order Count' field represent in Tableau?

• The total number of columns in the dataset

• The total number of rows in the dataset

• The total number of categories in the dataset

• The total number of unique values in a column

How can you analyze the number of items per category using the 'Order Count' field?

• By creating a new calculated field

• By filtering the dataset by category

• By dropping the category to the columns

• By dropping the category to the rows

What is the role of 'Measure Name' in Tableau?

• It is a filter for selecting specific measures

• It is a calculated field for aggregating data

• It is a dimension that contains labels for each measure

• It is a measure that contains numerical values

How can you reorder measures in Tableau?

• By renaming the measures

• By creating a new hierarchy

• By dragging and dropping in the measure value card

• By using the sort function

When are 'Latitude' and 'Longitude' fields generated in Tableau?

• When there is a geographic field in the dataset

• When there is a calculated field in the dataset

• When there is a text field in the dataset

• When there is a time field in the dataset

What does Tableau use to map 'Latitude' and 'Longitude' fields?

• Its internal Geo database

• Manual input from the user

• User-provided coordinates

• External mapping software
