URL Actions between two published Tableau Dashboards?

tableaucommunity@tableau.com — Mon, 08 Oct 2012 20:53:20 GMT

So my question is can you make a URL Action that will work between two published Dashboards on Tableau Server?

So I want to be able to pass something I'm filtering on in 1 Dashboard to Another Dashboard I have published on my Server.

They are published separately, in separate workbooks.

I know I can combine into one workbook, and use filter actions, but I was just curious to know if anyone has had success embedding a Tableau Dashboard as a Webpage Object, and then passing a URL action to it?

Knowledge Base says use external sources for URL Actions, but thought I'd pose the question anyway.

Grand Totals Incorrect due to formula and data duplication

tableaucommunity@tableau.com — Tue, 25 Sep 2012 18:07:04 GMT

I have an interesting question for everyone.

The essence of my issue is that I have to take the Distinct count of Sales Teams that an Admin is assigned to in order to get the subtotal to be correct per Admin for there Admissions.

Example:

First Admin is assigned 3 Sales Teams and has 12 Admits, so there are 3 lines of data.

Second Admin is assigned the same 3 Sales Teams and has 4 Admits, and also has 3 lines of data.

Thrid Admin is also assigned 3 Sales Teams, but 1 is new, and has 10 Admits and also has 2 lines of data.

Using CountD, I can get the individual Panes to be correct for there Admits, and the Subtotal to be correct.

The problem I'm having then occurs on the Grand Total as the CountD for Sales Team is Now 4 instead of 3, so my Grand Total is incorrect.

I know you can trick Grand Totals, but am having difficulty since I'm using CountD.

Any suggestions?
