Benchmarking Funnel - Brand/Department parent child and Language override

Language overrides are needed for the funnel e.g. Business Unit is Brand which is Business on my job card. Department is Unit on my job card

Provide hierarchy - e.g. follow Organisational Hierarchy rules - select Business then restricts you to Department (my unit).


What business value are you trying to achieve?

make it easier for my users to look for things

    Hello Mark,

    Upon thorough review of this idea, we arrived at the following conclusions:

    • Language Overrides: Overrides are needed for the funnel (e.g., "Business Unit" is "Brand" on my job card, and "Department" is "Unit" on my job card). This is not supported by Looker as language overrides don’t apply to the 'Dashboard filter'. — This cannot be done.

    • Provide Hierarchy: For example, following Organizational Hierarchy rules, selecting "Business" should restrict the options available in "Department" (my unit). If this refers to the filter for "Business", then the "Department" filter will display options that belong to the selected "Business". — This can be done.

    Hence, could you please raise a separate idea for the "provide hierarchy" feature so we can consider it for future enhancements?

    Thanks,

    John Lorenzo

    Adam - any chance for "Provide hierarchy - e.g. follow Organisational Hierarchy rules - select Business then restricts you to Department (my unit)."??

    sorry, it was moved into more info required but should be under review. My understanding is that this should already function as you are describing, so it is currently on my backlog to identify why the language is displaying incorrectly

    Language overrides are required and should be picked up from platform language overrides already in the platform

    alternatively - provide unique language overrides for the funnel

    My users would not know "Department" - it is known as Unit from our job card
