Hi,
i finished my report and now i am reducing the time using the performance analyzer, i can do the same think using 3 different ways, and i whant to know which is better.
1. Create the calculation as a columns directly in the query when i am importing the data.
2. measures.
3. calculate columns
i create many conditionals formatting for background colors and to reduce the load time i what to use the better way.
so for example for the same conditional.
1. create a column on the database with the HEX code
2. measure1=if(column1=1;"#e6e6e6";"#ffffff")
3. calculatecolumn1=if(column1=1;"#e6e6e6";"#ffffff")
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @santiagomur
my opinion and experience:
Create column database in the origin query from data source - the best option, but it will affect on refresh data process
calculate column is the second option
measure will not be effective, emasure useful for all-datasource scope
do not hesitate to kudo useful posts and mark solutions as solution
