In this tutorial, I show you step-by-step how to make the most of using dynamic zone visibility to create this functionality. We'll go through both scatter plot drill downs from Region → State → Postal code and then replicate that as a bar chart. 

You can easily make this a map drill down by changing the chart type. That's it!

🔍 What you'll learn in this video: 

1. The basics of drill down functionality in Tableau
2. Hands-on demonstrations, tips, and best practices
3. How to interact with the data

💡 Why is this important?

Drill down capabilities allow analysts to explore data from a broad overview down to granular details. By mastering the 3-level drill down, you can uncover hidden patterns, insights, and trends that might be overlooked in higher-level analyses. 

📌 Prerequisites: 

A basic understanding of Tableau's interface and primary functions will be helpful, but beginners will be able to follow along as well!

If you are following along, be sure to pause the video along the way as you repeat the steps.

In a previous tip, I showed you how to calculate day over day change and build 3 KPI cards.

However, this does not cover the case when you need to ignore weekends. In this #Tableau tip, I show you how to calculate daily change excluding the weekends.

You can copy/paste the calculations from below the video. Enjoy and good luck!

Calculations

During Watch Me Viz, I covered set actions, parameter actions, highlighting, boolean calculations, table calculation, dashboard layout, and I failed at a starburst chart (I couldn't get the years to sort properly; I'll post it when I figure it out).

Enjoy! Check out the viz below the video.

There are tons of ways to create a single level drill down, but if you’re having issues creating a second drill down, this video is a guaranteed way to help you fix this problem.

Context is important in data visualization. For every chart you create, consider asking yourself "compared to what?" 

In this tip, I show you how to add context to a simple bar chart by showing whether a value is above or below the average.

Twice recently I've used parameter actions to create a single column drill down and drill up to mimic a hierarchy.
