Comparing Lists Using List Logic


Suppose you use Spotfire to create a dashboard showing your customer's purchases every quarter. With every updated dashboard, you may want to see which customers are new in your top 10, which customers have dropped out of your top 10, and which customers continue to remain in your top 10.

To start, you need
to create a list from the top 10 customers. 
In your dashboard inside TIBCO Spotfire Professional, mark the top 10
and then right click on a visualization and select 'New List from Marked. . .'

 




 

 





Then, when next
quarter's dashboard is ready, you can create a new list with the Top 10
Customers from that following the same steps as above:





 

 

We can then analyze
any of our top 10 lists using the List Logic capabilities.  For example, if we want to see who was in our
top 10 in Q2 but not in Q1 we can by creating a new list which contains the
customers from the Top 10 Q2 list who are not in the Top 10 Q1 list.
