I have a requirement where, for example, there are 10 employee records with onboarding and offboarding dates. I need to implement a date range control. For instance, from January 1st, 2024 to April 30th, 2024. Then, in the bar charts, I need to display the count of onboarded and offboarded employees from January to April month wise . I’ve managed to count the onboarded and offboarded employees, but my challenge lies in implementing a single date range so that my visuals can function accordingly. Below is the attached input and expected output.
I am afraid, you need to fix date fields as a single date field in the backend or via custom sql.
may be a union of both date fields to capture all data points and if there are duplicates, they could be handle in visuals.
I guess its not possible to that on analysis using multiple date fields that too for a single visuals.
For Single visuals where you want to show the count on bar or line chart for both onboard & offboard, you may need to have single date field to be used in x-axis.
Hence, you would need to fix it either at the backend or use Custom SQL to join the same table in quicksight and then create a dataset based on the custom sql … then use in analysis.
I will check on custom SQL about single visual for month on X-Axis.
Is there a way I can have date range period that works for 2 visuals one for onboarded visual and another one for off boarded visual?
For example when I select data range Jan to April then Onboard visual should show how many were hired from Jan to April and vice versa to Off board visual?
