Hello, 

 

I have edited alias for some of the fields, but they dont not reflect correctly in the dashboard. 

For example: 

This is the customer tier field with edited alias  

 

Alias Issue - does not reflect current one

However, the customer field result still reflects to the old entry before I edit alias

After further review: The select a Dimension field does not update

How to fix the BCG - Select a Dimension to reflect the current Customer field that I just edited alias? 

I dont have the excel (raw) data with me, unfortunately.

    Javier, unfortunatelly the aliases are not passed to the calculated fields, so you would need to edit the alias in your calculated field:

    Javier, unfortunatelly the aliases are not passed to the calculated fields, so you would need to edit the alias in your calculated field: Your best option, is to create a customer* field:CASE [Custome

     

    Your best option, is to create a customer* field:

    CASE [Customer]

    WHEN "Albertsons" THEN "Classic Member"

    WHEN "BevMo!" THEN "Plus Member"

    WHEN "Kroger" THEN "Premier Member"

    WHEN "Safeway" THEN "Non-Member"

    WHEN "Target" THEN "Digital Self-Service Buyer"

    WHEN "Walmart" THEN "Advisor-Assited Client"

    ELSE [Customer]

    END

    Then replace references:
