Support for SKEWP Function in Analytical Engine (AE)
Summary: Vianney Ramos has identified a limitation with the SKEWP function in the Analytical Engine (AE), noting that workarounds can produce unreliable results with certain datasets. They have requested native support for SKEWP and emphasized the need for the SKEW function to integrate well with complex formulas. Vianney Ramos encourages others who have faced this issue to support the request for enhancement.
Hello,
We have identified a limitation with the SKEWP function when used in conjunction with the Analytical Engine (AE).
After working with Sisense support and R&D, it was determined that creating a workaround for SKEWP through calculated measures in AE can produce unreliable results, particularly with small datasets or data containing closely clustered values. Since other formulas in our widgets require AE, the lack of native SKEWP support can lead to calculation errors.
We would like to request native support for the SKEWP function within the Analytical Engine so it can be used reliably alongside other AE-based calculations.
We also need the SKEW function to work with complex formulas without flattening the formula (it is not a viable work around for us).
If anyone else has encountered this limitation, please consider supporting this request.
Thank you.
