Pivot With Excel
Pivot With Excel
Experiment:2.3
Aim: a. Import the Data warehouse data in Microsoft Excel and create the Pivot table and Pivot Chart.
Description: The experiment involves using R programming to implement a classification algorithm for
business intelligence purposes. Participants will learn how to preprocess data, train a classification
model, evaluate its performance, and use it for predicting future outcomes.
Steps:
Outcomes:
Get Data
Connect database
Pivot Chart using PivotTable Analyze -> Tools -> Pivot Chart -> Choose Chart Type
Aim: b. imports the cube in Microsoft Excel and create the Pivot table and Pivot Chart to perform data
analysis
Steps:
1. Connect to the Cube:
• In Excel, go to the "Data" tab and click "Get Data" or "Get External Data."
• Choose the data source type that corresponds to your cube (e.g., Analysis Services,
OLAP, etc.).
• Enter the necessary connection details to connect to the cube.
2. Query Data from the Cube:
• Use the query editor to build MDX (Multidimensional Expressions) queriesto retrieve
the data you need from the cube.
• Define dimensions, hierarchies, measures, and filters in your query.
3. Load Data into Excel:
• Load the data into a worksheet or data model in Excel.
4. Create Pivot Table:
• Select the data you want to use in the Pivot Table.
• Go to the "Insert" tab and click on "PivotTable."
• Choose the location for the Pivot Table (existing worksheet or new worksheet).
5. Design the Pivot Table:
• Drag and drop fields from your cube data into the Pivot Table fields list to define rows,
columns, values, and filters.
• Set the Pivot Table properties and formatting as needed.
6. Create Pivot Chart:
• Select the Pivot Table.
• Go to the "Insert" tab and click on "PivotChart." Choose the type of chart and
customize it.
7. Analyze Data:
• Interact with the Pivot Table and Pivot Chart to analyze the data.
• Apply filters, slicers, and drill-down for data analysis.
Result:
Data -> External Data -> From Other Source -> From Analysis Service
Select OLAP
