Count transactions by day

[benrickard]

Hi there,

I have visualisations that show the number of quotes done on a quarterly, monthly and weekly basis (and other time periods), but I can't seem to work out how to show them on a daily basis. The script of our autoCalendar is below, which I am guessing is the place to put something so we can do a chart of quotes per day. Can someone please help me with how to set this up?

Thanks!

Ben

Just use your date as dimension to aggregate by each day.

Hi there, 

Thanks for your reply. I have put the date as a dimension, but then I just get an x-axis of dates, including multiples of the same date, with everyone showing just one transaction. It's not aggregating multiple quotes into a single date when I do it that way. Am I using the wrong date field for the dimension?

I found the right field to use for the dimension and it's working now. Thanks!
