In this week's challenge explore the reporting tools to help Arnold create a visualization for his car sales last month.

 

Arnold at Platinum Motors would like to get a better picture of his car sales from the last month. Using the provided dataset, create a report that shows the locations of the buyers, color-coded by the type of car purchased, with a legend. Underneath the report, put a table that shows the number of sales and average sale price by car type.

I love all that you can do with maps in Alteryx (now that I actually know how to use this tool).

This was a good challenge. Not particularly difficult, but with a few elements that I think all Alteryx developers should have in their toolkit.

Why do chicken coops only have 2 doors?

If they had 4, they'd be chicken sedans! 

The report map tool took me a bit to get the hang of...

i know it's not hard to transpose and crosstab, but I just use my own macro "Transpose (Excel Style)" to accomplish it one step without any real configuration.patrick_digan_0-1591018180506.png

As someone who actually does report vehicle sales for a living, this one hits a little close to home.
