Tableau Certified Consultant Questions and Answers
A client needs to design row-level security (RLS) measures for their reports. The client does not currently have Tableau Data Management Add-on, and it
may be an option in the future.
What should the consultant recommend as the safest and easiest way to manage for the long term?
A consultant is designing a dashboard that will be consumed on desktops, tablets, and phones. The consultant needs to implement a dashboard design that
provides the best user experience across all the platforms.
Which approach should the consultant take to achieve these results?
A client wants to see data for only the last day in a dataset and the last day is always yesterday. The date is represented with the field Ship Date.
The client is not concerned about the daily refresh results. The volume of data is so large that performance is their priority. In the future, the client will be able
to move the calculation to the underlying database, but not at this time.
The solution should offer the best performance.
Which approach should the consultant use to produce the desired results?
A client wants to flag orders that have sales higher than the regional average.
Which calculated field will produce the required result?
A client's dashboard has two sections dedicated to their shops and warehouses shown when a viewer chooses either shops or warehouses with a parameter.
There are a few quick filters that apply to both, while others apply to only shops or only warehouses.
Currently, the quick filters are all shown at the left side of the dashboard. The client wants to hide all filters, but when shown, make it easy for the viewer to
find the quick filters that work for only shops or only warehouses.
Which solution should the consultant recommend that meets the client's needs and is most user-friendly?
A client has a dashboard that uses a bar chart to visualize sales by Sub-Category and a detail table that has all the orders for the products within Sub-
Category. The table has more than 10,000 rows of data and is slow to load.
A consultant plans to add an action so when the client interacts with the bar chart, only the relevant data appears in the table.
What will provide the fastest rendering of the dashboard?

A client collects information about a web browser customers use to access their website. They then visualize the breakdown of web traffic by browser version.
The data is stored in the format shown below in the related table, with a NULL BrowserID stored in the Site Visitor Table if an unknown browser version
accesses their website.
The client uses "Some Records Match" for the Referential Integrity setting because a match is not guaranteed. The client wants to improve the performance of
the dashboard while also getting an accurate count of site visitors.
Which modifications to the data tables and join should the consultant recommend?
An online sales company has a table data source that contains Order Date. Products ship on the first day of each month for all orders from the previous month.

A client wants to see the average number of orders per customer per month, broken down by region. The client has created the following calculated field:
Orders per Customer: {FIXED [Customer ID]: COUNTD([Order ID])}
The client then creates a line chart that plots AVG(Orders per Customer) over MONTH(Order Date) by Region. The numbers shown by this chart are far higher
than the customer expects.
The client asks a consultant to rewrite the calculation so the result meets their expectation.
