For folks who download crosstabs from Tableau dashboards, this tip is for you! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To demonstrate this tip, let’s use a simple crosstab with Superstore data. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To begin your download, simply click the download button and select crosstab. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you select Crosstab, you are presented with a few additional options: The sheets you wish to download, and a choice between Excel or CSV file formats. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is where the fun begins! If you select Excel, your download file will be formatted the same way it appears in Tableau. Notice the merged cells in this screenshot: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alternatively, the CSV format populates each column & each row with the corresponding data. In other words, without merged cells. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Voil\u00e0! Two options for downloading crosstabs. If you’d like to take this tip for a test drive, you can find my Tableau workbook published on Tableau Public<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Happy Vizzing!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
