Hi,
I am new to Tableau and am stumped on this situation:
I have three tables in the same source: users, payments, and sessions. I'd like to have users as the primary table, and then join payments, and also join sessions. I end up with something like this (I've paired it down to the minimum columns/data needed):
user_id (users)payment_id (payments)amount (payments)session_id (sessions)1151115222103
This is two users, with one payment each, but user 1 has two sessions whereas user 2 has one session.
You can do a COUNTD(payment_id) to get the number of unique payments (2). However, I can't figure out how to get the total payments ($15). Is it possible to do a sum of unique payments?
I could do a custom sql join and do a "group by", but the I would lose other data (ie. payments per day). Data blending seems to be even more of a challenge.
Any ideas?
I've attached a Tableau workbook with this example.
