Hi All
Please tell how to validate data at the back end script part
Thanks Timba
an easy way (at the beginning of the test) is
compare the most significant measures with the same measures in the source database
i think,there is no straight approach,
u have to write ur one sql by understanding qlikview scripts, and execute those scripts in ur db server and compare the data.
Hi Timba,
Could you please elaborate more?
Thanks,
Rajesh Vaswani
Hi Timba,
I would put a number of sheets in the document when you have loaded it to just look at what you have in each field.
This app is a useful head start for this:
QlikView App - Generic Data Profiler
I would also add a sheet with MultiBoxes on so you can see the values for every field in a record at the same time (once you have selected an id).
Also, adding as many fields as you sensibly can to a sheet in list boxes can help you eyeball for errors.
Often in apps I will add a validation sheet, and put tables in for some of the errors and inconsistencies that I foresee may occur in the data - IDs without corresponding dimensions, for example.
