Tableau(Control chart in tableau)

 

control charts in Tableau:

Control chart is a statistical tool used to determine if a manufacturing or business process is in a state of control. Control chart uses standard deviations above and below the mean, which are displayed as bands - with outliers identified using color.

Standard deviation is used to show how far a way data is from the mean. In this chart, the measure of standard deviation is used to identify outliers in the data. (Data points that differ significantly from other observations).

A control chart consists of:

  • Points representing measurements in samples taken from a process at different times.

  • The mean of all measurements in the sample.

  • A center line is drawn at the mean.

  • The control limits – UCL – the upper control limit and LCL – the lower control limit.

  • Signals – Outliers (any point outside the control limits)
