Build a Report from Table

Let's suppose we have an ecomm_orders model and we want to build some analysis around that, like Category-wise total orders, Sales by state, etc.

  • Click on "+Create Report" and select the ecomm_orders model.

  • On clicking on Create, you would land on the Edit View of the Report Builder UI.

  • In the Input section, you can see all the Dimension columns and Measures that are present in the model.

  • For example, let's build a table consisting of category-wise total orders. The Table is the default visualization type.

  • In the Build Section, Table Fields - there are two sections: Summarize and Group By.

  • Drag Order_id into the Summarize area. You may also click on "+Add Column" to add a column. When you drop a numeric column, the summarization is by default selected as Sum. You may change the aggregation type. As for our example, we need the Count of the Order_Ids by category, so let's change the aggregation to Count by clicking on the dropdown button alongside the selected Order_Id column in Summarize area and choose Count aggregation.

  • Now drop Category into the Group By Area.

  • Hit the Run button.

  • And there you have the Category-wise Total Orders report in the Table format.

  • Now, for example, you want to plot a pie chart for the Category-wise Total Orders report. Click on Pie-Chart Visualization type on the top of the pane.

  • Make edits to the chart settings if required, and Hit Run.

  • And there you have the Pie chart of the Category-wise Total Orders report.
