pivot table not showing totals with conditional formatting - amazon-quicksight

When I apply conditional formatting (gradient background) to a QuickSight pivot table, the Total row does not show any values. If I remove the conditional formatting, the values on the Total row appear. The image shows the same (duplicated) pivot table. The one with conditional formatting shows no Totals. The one without conditional formatting shows Totals.
Anyone else encounter this? I'm stumped... QuickSight Pivot Tables

To apply conditional formatting to the TOTALS in the QS dashboard, you can follow below approach and this should solve your problem:
Click on option at the top right of your pivot visual and click on conditional formatting.
On the various conditions you have mentioned, click on the button besides it as shown in the image below.
enter image description here
After clicking this there will be three checkboxes values, subtotals and totals. Check the totals box and you are done.
Do let me know if it works.

Power BI visual axis - sort axis so that (blank) not in the middle

Anyone know how to rearrange this in Power BI without the blank appearing in the middle? I know I can transform the blanks into something like '0 - No category assigned' but in Tableau you can create a custom sort. Is this possible in Power BI?
You can sort the columns in the chart
either by category or by value
in ascending or descending order
using the ellipsis menu on the upper right corner.
Your visual is currently sorted "by value in ascending order". Change that to sort "by category in ascending order" and the Blank category will appear on the first position, or use "descending order" to show it on the last position.
You can sort the Category column by another "sorting" column, but naturally this can't include Blank categories, because they result from filtering another table that has "unknown" categories.

SSRS merge rows vertical in a single column

I'm looking to merge vertical rows for only a single column of my report, so that when that column has lots of data, it doesn't force the left rows to expand.
The answer appears to be using a matrix (e.g. SSRS tablix Merging cells vertically problem), but I'm not clear how it would work in this case.
For example, in the screen-shot below, I'd like to spread the confirmation footer text through the following 4 rows, so that the first row (Sales Contact, Angela Thomson, Confirmation Footer, The credit card used...) is the same width as the others and that the Sales Contact info on the left is not pushed down (i.e. the Title row should be just below Sales Contact, and not have all that space in between.
Any thoughts on this?
You could use a series of nested tablixes. Create each tablix in your report then drag and drop into the main tablix until you get the effect you're after. (nested data regions reference).
Here's the design of 3 nested tablixes
Here's the preview of the report

Visual Studio 2013 Report RDLC with related datasets

I currently have two tables in a database "customer" and "pricelist" where a customer can have multiple pricelist items linked to their ID.
I'm trying to build a report in VS2013 where it lists all customers [alphabetically], then all of their pricelist items [alphabetically], then page break between each customer.
I've tried setting it up to use a dataset of each table, which doesn't let me group them together, and I've also tried joining the two tables into one view which was the closest I had gotten. The problem was that for each item, it printed the customer name and a page break, because of the inner join i was doing where each record has the customer name on it.
Please help me figure this out! I just want to be able to display the data as such;
CUSTOMER NAME
.........ITEM 1.....PRICE
.........ITEM 2.....PRICE
.........ETC
PAGE BREAK
CUSTOMER NAME
.........ITEM 1.....PRICE
.........ETC.
To group data in a report:
Click the Design tab.
If you do not see the Row Groups pane , right-click the design surface and click view and then click Grouping.
From the Report Data pane, drag the Date field to the Row Groups pane. Place it above the row called (Details). Note that the row handle now has a bracket in it, to show a group. The table now also has two Date columns -- one on either side of a vertical dotted line.
From the Report Data pane, drag the Order field to the Row Groups pane. Place it below Date and above (Details).
Note that the row handle now has two brackets in it, to show two groups. The table now has two Order columns, too.
Delete the original Date and Order columns to the right of the double line. This removes this individual record values so that only the group value is displayed. Select the column handles for the two columns, right-click and click Delete Columns.
Switch to the Preview tab to preview the report. It should look similar to the following illustration:

Implementing drill down in Kibana 4

Is it possible, and if so, how, to implement drill down in Kibana 4?
For example, lets say a dashboard has a pie chart which represents products.
Beneath that, there could be a table which shows component parts which are used to make products, together with supplier name, cost, availability, and other details. Clicking a product in the pie chart will filter the table to only show parts for that specific product. Selecting the supplier field would drill to another table showing the details for the supplier.
This requires that there be a multi-column table widget which would be used to display the details for each part, and that each column in the table could potentially be a link to another table.
In addition, lets say that there are three charts at the top of the dashboard. Clicking on each one should swap out the area below to display a table with a specific query and data columns relevant to the selected chart.
Is this kind of functionality abailable in Kibana?
You can mostly achieve this type of functionality in Kibana 4. What you'll want to do is create a search that has the fields that you want to display and save that. Next you'll create your visualizations that have the things you want to drill down on.
Finally, create a dashboard with all of the visualizations on it, and then also add the Search (when you hit +, there's a tab that says Searches. Choose your saved search there.
When you click on your widgets, it will start adding filters and refreshing the page, including your "search".
On the search widget that's on the dashboard, you can click on the rows and they will expand to show the fields. Next to each field is a +/- that will let you filter to that value or exclude that value.
I Think Kibi has this feature But again I think it is for relational database tables

How (& where) does Magento decide the order of list items in the configurable product view dropdown?

image #1: https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/gDCgo_SHMbnAOmHCh0LQCtMTjNZETYmyPJy0liipFm0?feat=directlink
When examining a Magento configurable test product (ski goggles with a color option), I see that the colors of the dropdown list (see image #1) are ordered like this: White, Blue, Red, Silver. However, when I examine the product in the admin view and select the "Associated Products" tab, there seems to be no correlation between the frontend list organization and the product ID numbers, price, or anything else for that matter.
To demonstrate, if I connect the product ID numbers to the above list, I get: White (170), Blue (169), Red (168), Silver (175) - see image #2 below.
image #2: https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/ES0i3_wZsdiU35w4_MGLrdMTjNZETYmyPJy0liipFm0?feat=directlink
At the time I initially created the configurable product, I had added three color options (168, 169, 170) and they appeared to be displaying in descending order by ID in the dropdown on the frontend. But I just now added another individual product (the color Silver), with an ID of 175, and it doesn't follow this trend.
Question: What logic does Magento use to order these lists, and what file is this function located in? I'm looking for a way to arrange the config. product dropdown list(s) in ASCENDING order, regardless of price or any other factor, ex. from 168-175.
Thanks.

Someone with more experience or knowledge may override me on this, but I believe the order the attribute values appear in the drop down list is based on the order they are given on the attribute label definitions when you create the attribute.
Sort order of the attributes is determined in the attribute. The furthest column on the right is called Sort Order.
Otherwise it should sort alphabetically.
I think what you are looking for is to sort dropdown values (i.e. small, medium, large, extra-large) by some value, and not by its label. If this were done, sorting would make more sense. We would be able so sort by increasing or decreasing size, rather than alphabetical (which does not make sense).
In order for this to happen, we would need magento to support enumerations or oordinal values (https://magento.stackexchange.com/questions/20985/get-option-value-by-id-or-attribute-in-magento, Magento - Sort by Position and Name?). There are NUMEROUS requests for this, which are being ignored.
Please be aware, dropdown values can already be re-ordered. In the admin pages, you can simply drag a dropdown value in M2 in order to change its position (M 1.9 calls this "Sort Orer"). However, the question then becomes how to use the position or sort order [s=1 m=2 l=3 xl=4] of the attribute-value for sorting, rather than its label.
