Hello,

 

How can i add/append customized rows to an tableau report.

 

I have an tableau sheet-1 which pulls information/data from an tableau extract.

 

YEAR     TASKNAME  TASKID   ASSIGNEE   PRIORITY CAUSE 

 

1)I want to build an tableau sheet-2 which has customized rows based on some error check conditions and keeping appending error test based on these conditions one below another and not as columns;

for eg: 

ERROR TEXT                           TASKID

SYNC ERROR                           xxxxx                                   ----> stored in seperate variable

CFG ERROR                             YYYYY                                     ----> stored in seperate variable

 

Each and every error text is generated out in different variable based on validation of the error criteria. I cannot include all these error conditions in single variable as there are mulitple IF conditions.

 

2)If i have to append the SYN ERROR variable values and CFG error variable values to the tableau sheet1 data on the final dashboard, what guidelines needs to be followed?

    Hi,

     

    Let me rephrase my question:

     

    I would like to append rows to the report from multiple variables as single column.

    Variable a:

    check for some conditions then displays error [returns error as text] if condition fails.

    if X=Y

    THEN

    ""

    ELSE

    "Error: X doesn't match to Y"

    END

    Variable b:

    check for some conditions then displays error [returns error as text] if condition fails.

    if P>0

    THEN

    ""

    ELSE

    "Error:P is less than zero"

    END

    Variable C:

    check for some conditions then displays error [returns error as text] if condition fails.

    if Q<>100

    THEN

    ""

    ELSE

    "Error: Q doesn't equals to 100"

    ENd

     

    I want to display all the errors one below other at the same time in my report, if it occurs or not.

    I cannot choose the individuals variables to my row shelves, it doesn't append the rows.Please suggest.
