Tableau Desktop Certified Professional — Question 56

When creating a date filter in Tableau, to what does Anchor relative to refer?

Answer options

• A. The latest date in the data source that can be found.
• B. The mid-point in the range of displayed dates.
• C. The date in a relative-date filter to which you anchor a unit of time.
• D. The date in a range-of-dates filter to which you anchor units of time.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because 'Anchor relative to' refers to the date in a relative-date filter that serves as a reference point for time units. Options A and B describe other concepts related to dates but do not specifically address the function of anchoring in relative-date filters. Option D pertains to range-of-dates filters, which is not what the question is asking about.
