You are a sales analyst in an enterprise who can access data warehouses or flat files from Tableau Desktop to analyze data. You want to track the overall growth trend in sales, geographic distribution of sales, and top customers, and present a snapshot of the sales distribution to senior executives.
You can use Data Integration to integrate data from multiple sources, filter the data, and perform data transformation. You can then use Tableau V2 Connector to make the data available as a TDE file for analysis in Tableau. You can import the extract file in Tableau Desktop to create interactive, real-time dashboards. The visual representation helps you understand the profitability, with views presented by geography, product category, and customer segment. You can also publish the TDE file to Tableau Server or Tableau Online to share a live and interactive dashboard with all the executives in the organization.
