Hey Doaa,
Thank you for reaching out!
Ultimately, this is a matter of personal preference, depending on the use case, data size, and the developer's comfort level with SQL versus Tableau. Both approaches have their merits.
Aggregation in Tableau allows for dynamic, real-time adjustments without needing to rewrite SQL queries. It enables end-users to interactively explore data through filters and can simplify the workflow for non-technical users.
In contrast, doing so may increase Tableau's processing load, especially with large datasets. When dealing with heavier datasets, performing aggregation in SQL is the more efficient option.
Hope this helps!
Kind regards,
