Counting by the Day of the Week in a Pivot Table

Hello:

I am attempting to count incidents by the day of the week across a month.   I am hoping for:

            MON   TUE   WED   THU   FRI   SAT   SUN

Shift A    3          6          2       5       11       8      7

Shift B    2          8          x       x         x        x      x

Shift C  and so forth.

Here is what I have so far, but I can't figure out how to tell SiSense to count only by one of the 7 days of the week and not duplicate the day of the week as pictured here:

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hi @dinda156,

Did you mean that the data model is a live model, or that you do not have access to the model? Do you have access to the Data tab (like shown below) at all?

The solution to your question requires changes to the data model (regardless of the model type, elasticube or live), so to achieve this, you'll need edit access to the model. Otherwise, you'll need to ask the data designer of the model to make the changes on your behalf.

Hi @dinda156 ,

If I understand the question correctly, one best approach would be to create a column in the Elasticube table that identifies the day of the week. You can then use this new column instead of 'Time in Alarm DateTime'  in your screenshot.

To achieve this, use the following formula in Elasticube to get the day name:

DayName(DayOfWeek([Table Name].[Date Field]))

This will allow you to group and count incidents by the day of the week without duplication.

I probably should have mentioned I am in a cloud environment.  As such, no elasticube.   

thanks!

Hello:
Working in our cloud environment, SiSense (Cloud) doesn't like DAYNAME. I cannot reference a table in the cloud, only the data element.  Our cloud implementation doesn't permit this.
