DSNY2 - Dashboard Week DAY 4: Halloween Candy

This challenge was also tough with a capital T. Today’s challenge was to create a Tableau Prep workflow and workbook on a browser. We were to work on candy datasets from 2014 - 2017. First, the dataset from 2017 had an issue with the grouping of all the country names in one. Second, the 2014 dataset had values I couldn't match with the others. In order to avoid problems when combining data; I decided to avoid them. Thus the only ones I used were the 2015 and 2016 datasets. I cleaned each data by grouping, capitalizing, and sorting.


I did get to the dashboard today. Although a lot of the information was off. The data for 2015 was completely whipped out. When I presented the workbook on the browser it did not upload correctly. Although after getting it to work I finally showed my work. Although there were a lot of things wrong with it.  I did manage to establish a dashboard action with a bar graph and map according to year.
