Sales Date A select Sales from Date B

[wunderch]

Hi,

I have the following problem:

I have a Date A and a Date B that compares to Date A and Sales with Date A and Date B.

Now I want to select Date A und and get automatically the Sales from Date A and Date B.

For example the following qvw with Inline-Data.

I tried with variable, set analysis and alternate state, but nothing was the right thing?!

Hope someone can help me!

Thanks

Christian

Hi,

Try this script

DateASales:

Load * inline

[DateA, Sales

'01.06.2015', 100,

'02.06.2015',  50,

'03.06.2015', 200,

'04.06.2015', 150,

'05.06.2015', 200,

'06.06.2015', 300,

'07.06.2015', 250,

'02.06.2014', 180,

'03.06.2014', 120,

'04.06.2014', 100,

'05.06.2014', 220,

'06.06.2014', 400,

'07.06.2014', 320,

'08.06.2014', 500];

Date:

Load * inline

[DateA, DateB,

'01.06.2015', '02.06.2014',

'02.06.2015', '03.06.2014',

'03.06.2015', '04.06.2014',

'04.06.2015', '05.06.2014',

'05.06.2015', '06.06.2014',

'06.06.2015', '07.06.2014',

'07.06.2015', '08.06.2014'];

DateBSales:

Left Keep(Date)

LOAD

DateA AS DateB,

Sales AS SalesB

RESIDENT DateASales;

In chart:

Dimensions : DateA, DateB

Expression :

SalesA = Sum(sales)

SalesB = Sum(salesB)

Hi,

In this instance why not use LEFT JOIN and have a single table which holds Date A, Sales A, Date B and Sales B

[jagan]

Hi,

If you use Left Join records will be duplicated.

Hi Jagan,

thanks for your quick Answer. It works fine,

But is there a chance to get the same result without duplicate the 'DateASales'-Table?

I think this is the better approach, if you don't want that table use Left Join instead of Left Keep, I think this should also work.
