Sort version in tableau - sorting

I'm new in tableau, and I'm trying to build a report.
I have a field of versions,
e.g: 36.0.0.8667, 39.0.0.8267, 42.0.0.9639, 42.0.0.10249.
I need to find the two newest versions (meaning the highest value in the first part, from that group the highest value in the second part etc...) and make a comparison between the two of them and the average for all versions (between dates).
Does anyone have any idea how can I find the two newest versions?
Thanks!

tablelau for dashboard right?
you just need filter that can get 2 biggest valu from database
example like this.
the output will be 2 biggest value
select max(p.total),a.tot from product p,(select max(`total`) as tot from `product`) as a where total < (select max(`total`) from `product`);

Multiple Search Key in a Matrix

I'm trying to solve this problem since some days now but it seems I have reached a dead end. Maybe someone would be able to help me.
I have two sheets. The first one contains the list of my clients and their delivery number depending of the weekday.
In my second sheet I would like to get the delivery number of the client (red cells) depending of the weekday I select (yellow cells).
I tried VLOOKUP formula, INDEX/MATCH, QUERY but I wasn't able to find a way to get the delivery number depending of the client's name and the weekday. I think the main issue is that in the first sheet the weekday is a column title.
Maybe the solution is simply to build my tables differently...
Thank you for your help
You can try something like this, assuming A2 and B2 the cells of first name and first day to look:
=INDEX(Sheet1!$1:$1000,MATCH(A2,Sheet1!$A:$A,0),MATCH(B2,Sheet1!$1:$1,0))
Or, if you want this same formula for the full column:
=byrow(A2:A,lambda(each,if(each="","",INDEX(Sheet1!$1:$1000,MATCH(each,Sheet1!$A:$A,0),MATCH(offset(each,0,1),Sheet1!$1:$1,0)))))
Also doable (are perhaps more simply) using a MAP/FILTER; with your 'Caption 1' table in Sheet1!A1:D4 and your 'Caption 2' table at the top-left of Sheet2, the following in Sheet2!C2 gives you the delivery number for a many names/days as you enter in the columns alongside:
=map(A2:A,B2:B,lambda(name,day,ifna(filter(filter(Sheet1!B2:D4,Sheet1!A2:A4=name),Sheet1!B1:D1=day))))
N.B. The IFNA blanks out errors for those rows where a Name/Day pair hasn't been entered yet. Extend the ranges in the filter to suit your real data.
all you need is simple vlookup:
=INDEX(IFNA(VLOOKUP(A9:A11&B9:B11,
SPLIT(FLATTEN(A2:A4&B1:D1&"​​"&B2:D4), "​​"), 2, )))

How to make groups in an input and select a specific row in each of them in Talend?

I am working on a Talend transformation process (we are using Talend 6.4).
, and I don't know how to implement the current requirement.
I have an input consisting in :
Two columns that are my group keys (Account and Product), but are not unique (the same Account x Product couple can happen in multiple rows)
A criterion column (Contract end date), which will help me decide which row I want to keep for each group
Some "tail" data that need to be passed to the following step of the processing (the contract number)
The rule to implement is:
Keep only one record per group
The selected record must be one with no end date or, if all have end date, with the biggest end date
The selected record can be random in case there is a tie
See the transformation applying those rules on some dummy data:
I thought first to do the following:
sort by Account, Product, End_date (nulls first)
"select first" in each group
but I am not skilled enough to know whether the second transformation exists in Talend.

Pierre
Very interesting Talend question.
You need to create something like this job.
here a link to the zip file to import in your Talend
The answer from #MBDIA seem to be working, however I would like to share what we did to fulfill our requirement.
See our Talend process here:
The first tMap (tMap_3) acts like a tReplicate and a tMap, and sends:
in the upper branch only the Account and Product references, that are then deduplicated by the tAggregateRow_1.
in the lower branch all data and computed fields that enables us to take care of the case where the date is missing (instead of defaulting to 31/12/9999, we compute a flag (0 or 1) that we use in the sort step afterwards).
In the second part of the process, we first apply the sort to the whole data on Account, Product, Empty date flag (computed before), End date (desc) and use a second tMap to make a join on both branches (on Account x Product), only keeping First Match in order to keep the first record as per our requirement.

How to get the sum of values of a column in tmap?

I have 2 columns - Matches(Integer), Accounts_type(String). And i want to create a third column where i want to get proportions of matches played by different account types. I am new to Talend & am facing issue with this for past 2 days & did a lot of research but to no avail. Please help..
You can do it like this:
You need to read your source data twice (I used tFixedFlowInput_1 and tFixedFlowInput_2 with the same data). The idea is to calculate the total of your matches in tAggregateRow_1, it simply does a sum of all Matches without a group by column, then use that as a lookup.
The tMap then joins your source data with the calculated total. Since the total will always be one record, you don't need any join column. You then simply divide Matches by Total as required.
This is supposing you have unique values in Account_type; if you don't, you need to add another tAggregateRow between your source and tMap_1, in order to get sum of Matches for each Account_type (group by Account_type).

How can I get the values in the Matrix on my SSRS report to repeat?

I know there must be a simple answer to this, but I can't find it.
I have added a couple of textboxes to a Matrix in a BIDS/SSRS report. I've given these textboxes values such as:
=Fields!WEEK1USAGE.Value
It works (after a fashion); when I run the report (either on the Preview tab, or on the Report Server site) I see the first corresponding data value on the report - but only one.
I would think that once a value has been assigned via expressions such as "=Fields!WEEK1USAGE.Value", each value would display (rows would automatically be added).
There must be some property on the Matrix or the textbox that specified this, but I can't see what it might be.
Here is how my report looks (very minimalistic, so far) in the Layout pane:
...and after running, on the Preview tab:
Obviously, I want the report to display as many rows as necessary, not just one. The textboxes do have a "RepeatWith" property, but there description doesn't sound interesting/useful/promising.
I don't see any property on the Matrix control that looks right, either.
I thought maybe the designer was only showing one row of values, and ran the report on the server, too, but there also it just shows the two values.
So what do I need to do to get all the data for a provided field?
Matrices are for display of grouped data and summary information, usually in a horizontally expanding pivot table type of format. Is a matrix really what you are after? Looking at your expression you have =Fields!Week1Usage.Value but in a matrix what I expect to see would be at least =Sum(Fields!Week1Usage.Value) or even better just =Sum(Fields!Usage.Value). Then you would have ProactDescription as your row group and the week as your column group and it would all just work out everything for you, grouping and summing by Proact vertically and expanding the weeks out horizontally.
What seems to be happening is that you have no grouping on rows or columns and no aggregation so it is falling back to the default display which is effectively the First function - it displays the first row of data and as far as the matrix is concerned it has done its job because there is no grouping.
Without knowing your problem or data, I'll make up a scenario that might be what you are doing and discuss how the matrix does the heavy lifting to solve that problem. Let's say you have usage data for multiple Proacts. Each time one is used you record the usage amount and the date and time it is used. It could be used multiple times per day but certainly multiple times in a week. So you might be able to get the times each Proact is used from a table like so:
SELECT ProactDescription, TimeUsed, Usage
FROM ProactUsage
ORDER BY ProactDescription, TimeUsed
In your report you want to show the total weekly usage for each Proact over multiple weeks. Something like this:
Proact Week1 Week2 Week3 ...
Description Usage Usage Usage ...
--------------------------------------------
Anise, Fennel 1 CT 20.00 22.50 16.35 ...
St John's Wort 15.20 33.90 28.25 ...
...
and so on. Using a dataset based on the SQL above we create a matrix and in the row group properties we group on =Fields!ProactDescription.Value and in the column group properties we group on a week expression like =DateDiff(DateInterval.Week, Fields!TimeUsed.Value, Today) and then in the intersection of the row and column we put =Sum(Fields!Usage.Value). To display the header of the column nicely put an expression like
="Week " & DateDiff(DateInterval.Week, Fields!TimeUsed.Value, Today)
The matrix automatically does all the summing by week and product and expands the weeks horizontally for as many as you are reporting. For bonus points you can also put totaling at the end of the columns and the rows to show the total use of that Proact for the period (row total) and total use of all Proacts in that week (column total).

Can I compare values in the same column in adjacent rows in PowerPivot?

I have a PowerPivot table for which I need to be able to determine how long an item was in an Error state. My data set looks something like this:
What I need to be able to do is to look at the values in the ID and State columns, and see if the value in the previous row is ERROR in the State column, and the same in the ID column. If it is, I then need to calculate the difference between the Changed Date values in those two rows.
So, for example, when I got to row 4, I would see that the value in the State column for Row 3, the previous row, is ERROR, and that the value in the ID column in the previous row is the same as the current row, so I would then calculate the difference between the Changed Date values in Row 3 and Row 4 (I don't care about the values in any of the other columns for this particular requirement).
Is there a way to do this in PowerPivot? I've done a fair amount of Internet searching, and it looks like if it can be done, it would use the EARLIER or EARLIEST DAX functions, but I can't find anything that tells me how, or even if, this can be done.
Thanks.
Chris,
I have had similar requirements many times and after a really long time of trial-and-error, I finally understood how EARLIER works. It can be very powerful, but also very slow so always check for the performance of your calculations.
To answer your question, you will need to create 4 calculated columns:
1) Item Rank - used for ranking the issues with same Item ID
=COUNTROWS(FILTER('ID', EARLIER([Item ID]) = [Item ID] && EARLIER([Date]) >= [Date]))
2) Follows Error - to easily find issue that follows EROR issue
=IF([State] = "EROR",[Item Rank]+1)
3) Time of Following Issue - simple lookup so that you can calculate the different
=IF([Follows Error]>0,
LOOKUPVALUE([Date], [User], [User], [Item Rank], [Follows Error]),
BLANK()
)
4) Time Diff - calculation of time different for the specific issue
=IF([State]="EROR",
DAY([Time of Following Issue])-DAY([Date]),
BLANK()
)
With those calculated columns, you can then easily create a powerpivot table, drag State and Item Id onto the ROWS pane and then simply add Time Diff to Values. You will get an overview of issues that contain string "EROR" issue and the time it took to resolve them.
This is what it looks like in PowerPivot window:
And the resulting Pivot table:
You can download my Excel file here (2013).
As I mentioned, be careful with the performance as the calculated columns with nested EARLIER and IF conditions might be a bit too performance-demanding. If there is a smarter way, I would be very happy to see it, but for now this works for me just fine.
Also, keep in mind that all calculated columns could be nested into 1, but I kept them separated to make it easier to understand the formulas.
Hope this helps :-)
