Create a new Fusion Table by importing the .csv file from your computer.
Add a Summary
A summary can hold more than one for these queries.
Queries created by a summary tab can be more complex.
- for each customer, determine the total Sales
- for each customer, determine the average Sale
- for each Payment Method, determine the total Sales
- for each Product type, determine the total Sales value
- for each Product type, determine the average sales value
Rename your Summary tabs to describe the information it contains
Note:
- Summary tabs only display 10 elements in the chart, all the data is on the left hand side of the window
Add Multiple Filters
Add a row layout -- click on the red plus sign.
This will create a second copy of all the records |
 |
| Once a field is selected to be filtered, you can choose to include or exclude values | |
Multiple filters can be added to perform more complex queries.
- All cotton orders between $500 and $1000 that were purchased for cash
- All silk credit orders that are over $500
- All silk orders over $500 not sold to Perimeter Fabrics
- All cash orders over $400 except for cotton ones.
- All purchases not made by General Weavers and with a selling price of less than $1500 and greater than $500.
- All orders between $700 and $1650
- All purchases made before Jan 15 with a selling price less than or equal 2100
NOTE:
Once a filter has been added to a row layout and a new Summary Layout is added, the filter is also applied to the Summary Layout. This filter can be remove without remove it from the original Summary Layout.
Once a filter has been added to a row layout, it can be exported as a .csv file for further processing.
This type of query is harder to keep as each require its own layout to remain active.
Notice when you create a filter, text similar to the following appears beside the filter tab:
'Payment Method' = 'Cash' AND Sales >= 400 AND Product NOT EQUAL TO 'Cotton'
This text is part of a general database language called SQL. It is used in many database programs to manipulate the data contained in a database
More Difficult Queriesthis type of query is difficult to do: - All cash purchases that have a selling price under $350 or over $1500
a new calculated field is required, the formula would be:
if(Sales >1500 ,0,if(Sales<350,0 , 1))
