Granularity

Granularity is the scale or level of detail present in a set of data.  It identifies where levels of uniqueness exists in the data.  The data lives in the view at the lowest level, but each BI tool totals the levels differently.

Grain = SIS Account ID / SIS Transaction Number / SIS Detail Code Dist / SIS Detail Code Dist Ref Number

Please note:  The Level of Detail (LOD) calculations listed here for Tableau developers are a baseline and do not necessary include all of the LOD equations needed for your report.
