An analyst is working with a bar chart showing sales by state and wants to combine several states into a single sales region. What is a direct method for creating this group by interacting with the headers in the view?
Drag the "State" dimension onto the "Filters" shelf and select "Group Values" from the filter options.
Select the desired state headers in the view, then click the paperclip icon that appears in the tooltip.
Right-click the "State" dimension in the Data pane and select "Create Set".
Create a calculated field using a CASE statement to assign the new region name to the selected states.
The correct method is to select the headers of the states you want to group in the view, then click the group icon (which looks like a paperclip) in the tooltip that appears. This action creates a new group field in the Data pane. Creating a calculated field is a valid alternative for grouping, but it is not the most direct method using the view's headers. Creating a set is a different function used for creating subsets of data based on conditions. Right-clicking a dimension in the Data pane is a valid way to start creating a group, but the question specifically asks for the method using the headers in the view.
