IS 335–Fall 2020 – Kishore Tableau Assignment #1 (Chapters 1 and 2)
Notes:
Q1 The managers at Superstore are interested in monitoring the total profits that they made in the various categories of products they have sold so far broken down by the customer segments in which they sold their products in ascending order. The viz shown below provides this info to the managers. Recreate this viz in a sheet named Q1 in your Tableau workbook that you will submit as your Assignment #1 Answer Workbook.
Hint: Because we want profit information for all orders that have been fulfilled, you will need to create a data source consisting of only the orders worksheet in the Excel workbook, and use that data source for this viz.
Now the managers want to see the same profit information as in Q1 above, but only for orders that were returned. Recreate the viz shown below in a sheet named Q2 in your Tableau workbook that you will submit as your Assignment #1 Answer Workbook.
Hint: You will need to create a new data source that consists of both the orders and the returns worksheets inner joined by order id. Also, remember that the data source consisting of orders only needs to be retained, otherwise your information in response to Q1 will be incorrect.
The managers of Superstore are also interested in monitoring the trends of quarterly shipping costs for regular air and express air ship modes that were incurred by the various regions in which Superstore operates for the orders that were returned. The viz shown below provides this info to the managers. Recreate this viz in a sheet named Q3 in your Tableau workbook that you will submit as your Assignment #1 Answer Workbook.
Hint: Use the data source that you created for Q2 that consists of both the orders and the returns worksheets inner joined by order id. Again, remember that the data source consisting of orders only needs to be retained, otherwise your information in response to Q1 will be incorrect.

The analysis conducted by managers at Superstore from Q4 raised the question of the correlation between shipping cost and quantity ordered on a state-by-state basis in the United States. To provide this insight to managers, recreate the viz shown below as a sheet named Q5. Ensure that the number featured in every state is the order quantity, and the color indicates shipping cost. Hint: Use the initial data source featured in Q1, which was the Orders data sheet (prior to the inner-join). Begin by creating a filled map in a similar manner as that from Q4, which the exception of replacing profit and discount with shipping cost and order quantity respectively, and ensuring that the “map” mark is selected.
Q6 Now that we have developed the various vizs that managers at Superstore want to see to gain insights into Superstore’s business activities, we must now tie all this information together in a single, comprehensive dashboard. The viz shown below shows such a dashboard for the Superstore managers. Recreate this viz in a dashboard named Q6 in your Tableau workbook that you will submit as your Assignment #1 Answer Workbook.
Hint: You should use the Tiled toggle button to tile you four viz sheets in the dashboard. Also remember to reposition the legends just beneath each of their respective viz, and adjust as needed. Disregard if the legends do not exactly replicate the image below, but ensure that readability is not compromised.
