For Data Scientists, Visualization Experts, and Excel Formula Architects, the standard Dimensions and Measures may not completely fit your needs. Your story has a deeper level of complexity which requires a deeper connection with the data. Custom Fields give you greater flexibility with your data. For you, table calculations and custom fields

There are 3 types of Custom Fields you can create:
- Custom Dimensions: BLAH
- Custom Measure: BLAH
- Table Calculations (or Table Calcs): perform mathematical, logical (true/false), lexical (text-based), and date-based calculations on the dimensions, measures, and other calculations in your query. Table Calcs are similar to Excel functions.

Using Table Calculations
With Table Calculations (or 'Table Calcs'), you can create metrics on-the-fly. They are similar to formulas found in spreadsheet tools like Excel, and you can perform mathematical, logical (true/false), lexical (text-based), and date-based calculations on the dimensions, measures, and other calculations.
Table Calcs appear as green columns in the data table, rather than as blue columns (Dimensions) or orange columns (Measures).
