Graph with calculated dimension does not show data

Dear all,

I would like to create a graph that shows the amount of order per customer_id and also show the sum of the orders.

For this I have the following dataset:

LOAD * INLINE [
Employee_ID, Customer_id, Order_id, Order_total
1, 11, 6, 12
2, 12, 7, 14
3, 13, 8, 176
4, 14, 9, 12
5, 15, 10, 8
]
;

With this data I try to create a bar-chart with the following details:

- An calculated dimension: =Aggr(Count([Order_id]), [Customer_id])

- An expresiion: =Aggr(Sum([Order_total]), [Employee_ID])

When I look at the graph however no data shows up. Any thoughts on what I am doing wrong here?

HI,

You can try  just Sum([Order_total]) as an expression.

If that doesnt work then tell us What output you are expecting from the sample data.

Expr1: Count([Order_id])

Hi

Not sure why you are using calculated dimension. It's always better to avoid these where possible as they have a negative effect on performance. Can you share you're expected output?

I think I agree with meghaagr‌, is there a reason you are not doing this?

It was just for training purposes as I wanted to get a better understanding of the calculated dimension topic...
