Conditional expression or conditional dimension

Anonymous — Wed, 14 Sep 2016 11:13:56 GMT

Hi All,

Can someone explain how we can make conditional expression or conditional dimensions in qlik sense . for example we have a table in which we are showing Product wise sales like in below table -

Product	Sales qty	Sales amt	growth
A	100	100$	39%
B	34	20$	45%
C	370	100$	80%
D	300	250$	90%
E	400	150$	73%

and requirement is we have three button 'SalesQty', 'SalesAmt' and 'Growth' if we click on 'SalesQty' button then only product wise sales qty should be shown similarly for 'SalesAmt' and 'Growth' like in below table -

Product	Sales qty
A	100
B	34
C	370
D	300
E	400

Add a Inline like this:

LOAD * INLINE [

Field

Sales qty

Sales amt

growth

];

Then Add a Table with this expression:

if(getfieldselections ( Field) = 'Sales qty', [Sales qty],

if(getfieldselections ( Field) = 'Sales amt', [Sales amt],

growth))

There you go

Hey there,

This feature isn't in the newest Qlik Sense version AFAIK. You can't dynamically label the field in a simple way.

What you can do is to label the column as just 'Selected Field' and the user will understand that the field that the column has the same field as he selected in the listbox 'Field'.

Hope this helps you

Regards,

Hi Miguel,

Is there any extension so that by using that extension we could achieve that things.
