Description:
Text tables can be overwhelming because they contain a lot of information without using many pre-attentive attributes to draw the users' attention toward areas of interest. One of the best ways to add value to a text table in Tableau is to add totals!

There are numerous types of totals you can add to a Tableau worksheet. You can add totals for Rows, Columns, and can even choose which dimension-level you want sub-totals to display at. In addition, there are some workarounds you can use to display multiple types of totals at the same time.
