Steps to perform:

  • In the Tableau, connect to the databases.
  • The data source has three data files – Product, OrderDetails, PropertyInfo. These are three different excel sheet present in one data file.
  • Open Product data file.
  • Add OrderDetails data file, it contains the information about each order.
  • Now you can see there is a join in the two data files.
  • If you’ll hover on the join then you can see that there is a inner join using the common key i.e. Product ID. Inner join simply means that there are two files have a field in common and it can be combined easily.
  • Next, add the PropertyInfo file and it can be see that it is also joined.
  • If you’ll hover the mouse pointer then it can be clearly seen that OrderDetails and PropertyInfo are inner joined using the key – PropertyID.
