Adding a Slicer

Get slices inside a View based on the selected dimension.

Steps to Add Slicer

Check out the walk-through given below on how to add a slicer.

The users can add a further dimension to the created view using the Slicer option.

• Drag and drop one dimension and one measure to the Dimensions/ Measures column using the Design tab.

• Drag and drop another dimension to the Slicer section (E.g., Team is used as a slicer over here).

• The slices get displayed in the created view based on the second-dimension value via a Mixed chart (by default).

• Order the displayed data sorting it by specific limit and order. You can also select a Style to display the data differently.

• The displayed view gets modified accordingly and gets sliced based on the set order and limit. E.g., The below-given image displays 8 records of City-wise sum of salary for various Age groups in ascending order.
