Hi,
I am trying to forecast in Tableau but using R to run the forecast using "SCRIPT_REAL". I am not getting what I expected, does anyone have experience using R with Tableau for forecasting?
Any advice would be helpful.
Thanks
James
Hi James,
Hopefully your have already made progress wit the forecasting project. If not feel free to drop me more details. Here's some detail on one of the common issues you may experience in the interim. The SCRIPT_functions in Tableau are treated as table calculations. So worth considering Order of Operations. For example, you might be seeing unexpected results as the data is already filtered out, etc.
The order of operations article below is well worth having in your Tableau favourites in any case:
