How to select Percentage in 'Analysis' in Tableau?

 In Tableau, you can easily display values as percentages in your visualizations by formatting the field you want to display as a percentage. Here's how you can do it:

1.Drag the Measure to the View:

• Start by creating or editing a visualization in Tableau.
• Drag the measure you want to display as a percentage to the Rows or Columns shelf, depending on your chart type and the structure of your visualization.

2.Change the Default Number Format:

• By default, when you add a measure to the view, Tableau might display it as a whole number or with a decimal format.
• To change this, locate the measure in the Rows or Columns shelf or in the Marks card (left-hand side of the worksheet).
• Click on the measure's drop-down menu (the small triangle icon) to reveal additional options.

3.Format the Field as a Percentage:

• In the drop-down menu, choose "Format."
• The Format dialog box will appear. In the Format dialog box, you can customize the number format for your measure.
• To display the measure as a percentage, select the "Percentage" category on the left-hand side of the dialog box.

4.Adjust Percentage Formatting Options:

• Once you've selected the "Percentage" category, you can further customize how the percentage is displayed. You can set the number of decimal places, specify whether to show a percent symbol (%), and choose other formatting options based on your preference.

5.Click "OK":

• After configuring the formatting options, click the "OK" button in the Format dialog box to apply the percentage formatting to the measure.

6.View the Measure as a Percentage:

• Your measure will now be displayed as a percentage in your visualization.

Keep in mind that Tableau provides a high degree of flexibility when it comes to number formatting. You can adjust the formatting for each measure independently, and you can even use different formatting options for different measures in the same visualization. This allows you to tailor the presentation of your data to meet your specific requirements for analysis and reporting.
