Table Calculation

A Tableau calculation computed on the aggregated results in the view, such as running total, percent of total, rank, difference or moving average.

Definition

The results depend on addressing and partitioning ('Compute Using' Table Across, Pane Down or specific dimensions). Table calcs are computed last, after filters, so filtering on one hides marks without changing the others' values.

Exam tip

Wrong table calc results usually mean the 'Compute Using' direction is wrong.
