Rebasing on dashboards using controls

The rebasing in the control editor

The rebasing function in the control editor is implemented similarly to a cross-tab - as an on-drop operation. Select an option (or an entire variable) and drag it onto existing groups or categories. This will trigger a pop-up menu where you can choose either a rebase or a rebase by matching labels.

Rebase on a dashboard

We can use the control itself to switch between several bases.

• Create a control containing the variables for rebasing;

• Assign control to a chart as ‘Rebase’.

  

• Select the widget, go to the assignments, and check how the rebase control is applied to columns/rows (change depends on what you need)

  

A control assigned as rebase will only function when using the “All” option and will be applied according to the “Rebase: match categories by labels” principle.

If you need to rebase using completely different options (with different labels or structures), consider using the control editor rebase strategy to ensure accurate calculations.
