FrontBack
How can parameters improve user interaction with a dashboard?They allow users to input or adjust variables, creating a more tailored experience.
How can you use filters to enhance query performance?By reducing the amount of data being processed or analyzed.
How does multi-level sorting work?It sorts data by multiple columns or criteria in a prioritized order.
How does sorting improve data analysis?It helps organize data in a meaningful order, making patterns or trends easier to recognize.
What is a parameter in the context of dashboards?A variable that allows users to dynamically modify the data or view in a dashboard.
What is a wildcard filter?A filter that allows partial matching of text strings, useful for flexible searching.
What is an example of using a parameter with a conditional filter?Allowing users to select a threshold value to filter data above or below that threshold.
What is the benefit of sorting by a calculated field?It enables ordering based on custom metrics or derived values not directly in the dataset.
What is the difference between ascending and descending sorting?Ascending arranges data from smallest to largest, while descending arranges it from largest to smallest.
What is the primary benefit of dynamic filtering?It allows data views to update in real-time based on user selections.
What is the purpose of applying filters in a dataset?To narrow down data to show only the relevant information based on specific criteria.
What kind of data is most suitable for range filters?Numerical or date-based data.
What types of filters are commonly used in dashboards?Category filters, range filters, and date filters.
Why is it useful to combine sorting and filtering?To focus on a specific subset of data while also arranging it for better insights.
Why might you use a parameter instead of a fixed filter?To give users the ability to adjust the data being viewed without predefined limits.
This deck explores the use of filters, sorting data, and the implementation of parameters to create dynamic and customizable dashboards.
