Calculated fields allow you to create new, dynamic fields based on existing data. This helps you analyze your data in a more comprehensive way and create insightful insights. You can use various functions and calculations to create new fields, such as calculating differences, percentages, ratios, or performing comparisons.
Examples:
Calculate the profit margin by subtracting the cost from the revenue.
Create a field that shows the age group based on the user's birthdate.
Calculate the average order value by dividing the total amount spent by the number of orders.
Logic statements allow you to combine multiple conditions and perform calculations based on them. You can use logical operators like and, or, and not to combine multiple conditions, and you can use parentheses to group multiple conditions within a single statement.
Examples:
Show only orders placed within the last 30 days.
Calculate the total revenue of orders with a price greater than $100.
If the age is greater than 18 and the gender is female, display a specific message.
By utilizing calculated fields and logic statements, you can gain deeper insights into your data, uncover hidden patterns, and create insightful visualizations that tell a compelling story
