MODULAR SET UP
The Write Back Extreme extension supports three basic types of write back mechanisms. You can choose the module(s) you need to solve your use cases, and expand when you have the urge for other modules. The basic write back scenario’s are Add Data, Data Correction and Data Helper with a brief description below.
ADD DATA
Add data to visuals on a summary data level. Create dynamic forms to enable unlimited possibilities. You can use Add Data for example to add targets on a month level while the underlying data exists of millions of rows.
The Add Data module works great with the new Tableau Relationships. Of course you can also use blending and joining to display the Added data in your Tableau Dashboards.
DATA CORRECTION
Display an inline editable table with powerful tools like bulk-edit, interpolation and much more. Use selections in your Tableau Dashboard to filter the data you want to correct or change.
You can use Data Corrections for a lot of use cases like correcting wrong or missing sensor data , typo corrections in a dimension and other data quality related challenges.
DATA HELPER
Are you in need of a Helper table in your Tableau dashboards to store data and Join/Blend back in your Dashboard? This module is your solution. For example if you want to offer custom date periods or a list of internal codes which need to be managed on a regular basis.
Use the Data Helper module to eliminate Excel sheets floating around in your organisation and stop manual uploading and integration of your missing tables.
