Funnel Chart in Tableau

Last Updated : 19 Jan, 2026

A Funnel Chart in Tableau is a visual tool used to represent data across sequential stages of a process, such as sales pipelines, customer journeys, or conversion flows, where values typically decrease at each stage. It helps users easily identify drop-offs, performance gaps and conversion efficiency between different steps.

  • Displays data across ordered stages
  • Shows how values decrease from one step to the next
  • Helps identify bottlenecks and drop-offs
  • Commonly used in sales and marketing analysis
  • Makes conversion performance easy to understand
