Grouping alternate measures

msirotti — Mon, 20 Dec 2021 21:08:46 GMT

Hello, I am pretty new to Qlik Sense, and I would like to know if it is possible to satisfy this requirement: I have a bar chart with one dimension (year-month) and two measures (Total trnasactions amount, and Amount of manual transaction. Another bar chart shows fot the same dimension the Total transaction count and the Count of manual transactions.

Would it be possible to have a single chart with alternate groupes of measures where the users could switch between the couple of amounts and the couple of counts?

Thanks.

Thanks for your timely response, but what i need is being able to change couple of measures, from Total Amount &Manual Amount to Total Count&Manual Count

That's what alternate measures do. You can have two measure as default and add rest two measure as alternate measure . Then you can switch in between any of them out of 4.

Yes I know that you can go on the Exploration Menu and chose for your chart any two of the 4 possible measures, if that is what you are referring to, but isn't there any way to be able to chose directly a group Amounts or a groupe Counts ?

I think the best way to accomplish this with a container object.

Here you can either have it changed by using tabs in the container, or you can have it to switch when a variable have a curtain value. The last can be obtained by using a button object, that changes a variable, e.g. looping between 1 and 0.

You can have it a buttons in that case with measure name. You can then click on button and automatically change the measure in graph

Ok, the container object solution seems a very good one. Thanks
