Tableau Filters on Measures

by suresh

In this article, we will show you how to create Tableau filters on Measures with an example.

Tableau Filters on Measures

Before getting into this, I suggest you to refer Tableau Filters to understand the basic filter techniques. For this Tableau Filters on Measures demonstration, we are going to use the data source that we created in our previous article. So, Please visit Data Labels in Tableau Reports article to understand the Tableau Data Source.

First, Drag and Drop the English Product Name from Dimension Region to Rows Shelf, and Sales Amount Measures region to Columns Shelf. By default, tableau will generate the Bar Chart. Remember that, We have 130 Marks in our Tableau Report. The below screenshot will show you the report preview

First Approach to Create Tableau Filters on Measures

In this Tableau Filters on Measures example, we are going to add a filter condition on the Sales Amount. So, Please drag and drop the Sales Amount from Measures Region to Filters Shelf.

Once you drop the Sales Amount to Filters Shelf, a new window called Filter Filed will open. This window has All Values option, aggregate functions, standard deviance, and variance.

In this example, we will show you what will happen if we select the All values or Aggregate function. First, we will choose the All Values option and click the Next button.

TIP: Here, All Values means filter condition will apply to individual records. If we select the Aggregate function (Sum, Average, etc.), then the filter condition will apply to the aggregate value.

Once you click on the Next button, a new window called Filter will be opened to select the filter condition. From the below screenshot, you can observe that this window has four tabs: Range of Values, At least, At most, and Special. In this example, we will explain the first tabs, and the remaining three will explain in the following case.

Range of Values

This tab of Tableau Filters on Measures contains two text boxes. The first one to select the minimum value, and the second is to write the maximum value. So, you write the value as per your requirement using those text boxes. Or use the range bar and drag it to an appropriate point. For this Tableau Filters on Measures demo, we are leaving the maximum value as it is and changed the minimum value to 2,455

From the below screenshot, you can see the Filtered bar chart.

Now you can see that the Filter window is showing the aggregated values as the Range values. For this demo, we had changed the minimum value to 590, 466, and the maximum value to 980,396

Now you can that the report is displaying the products whose sum of the sales amount is between 590,466, and 980,396. For better understanding, we added the Data Label to the Bar chart.
