IF (True) Do not count x

robin_heijt — Wed, 07 Nov 2018 12:21:17 GMT

Hi,

I am trying to calculate in a bar chart the implementation of scores with this methodology:

Dimension:

=if([Movement Type]='Termination Voluntary' or 'Termination Involuntary', 'Implemented', 'Not Implemented')

Measure:

Count(distinct{<[OPR 2018]={'1B'}>}"Global ID")

This works fine, however what i would like is, that once a person has an implemented status, I do not want the graph to calculate the Not implemented status.

For example as shown in the below graph, the bar represents only 1 person. This person has an implemented status and not implemented due to multiple Movement types. But as the person already has been implemented, I do not want the bar chart to show to not implemented count. Is this possible?

Are you using more than one dimension in this chart?

Yes, another dimension is Function.

So, for each Function... you want to see a single person in either Implemented or Not Implemented. If they are in Implemented, then they should not be counted in Not Implemented.

Correct

Name	Cycle	Score 2017	Score 2018	Movement	Implemented
Jack	2018-2019	3A	1B	Termination	Yes
Jack	2017-2018	3A	1B	Promotion	No
Jack	2017-2018	3A	1B	Promotion	No

If this would be my data, i only want the chart to count the implemented move.

As the not implemented moves are not applicable after an implementation has been performed.

May be create this using 1 dimension and 2 expressions like this

Dimension

Function

Expression for Implemented

Count(DISTINCT {<[OPR 2018] = {'1B'}, Name = p({<[Movement Type] = {'Termination Voluntary', 'Termination Involuntary'}>})>} "Global ID")

Expression for not implemented

Count(DISTINCT {<[OPR 2018] = {'1B'}, Name = e({<[Movement Type] = {'Termination Voluntary', 'Termination Involuntary'}>})>} "Global ID")

Thanks,

It is partially working, the only issue now is that when I apply a filter this happens:

Unfiltered:

Filtered:

Where as before when I applied a filter it would only show the function associated with it.

So now when I filter for the function Sales, I only want to see sales in the graph, when I filter for a person that is implemented, I only want to see the implemented bar, not the not-implemented.

Is this possible?

Could you maybe also explain what the red "P" and "E" do? I am very curious what you did here.

Thanks a lot Sunny!

You can look at p() and e() here

P() & E() and where do you use them?

and also here

p() and e() function in Set Analysis #Part 30 (Qlikview Tutorial) - YouTube‌

Change your expression to this for selection in Name

Count(DISTINCT {<[OPR 2018] = {'1B'}, Name *= p({<[Movement Type] = {'Termination Voluntary', 'Termination Involuntary'}>})>} "Global ID")

Count(DISTINCT {<[OPR 2018] = {'1B'}, Name *= e({<[Movement Type] = {'Termination Voluntary', 'Termination Involuntary'}>})>} "Global ID")

Selection in Function should work without any issues... what happens when you select a function?

Amazing,

Thank you very much.

Hi Sunny,

One more question,

I have 1 field called cycle which represents the different cycles in which a movement has taken place. How should I adapt the code if I want the expression to look for a movement in the cycle '2018-2019'

The field "Cycle" containing the likes of;

2016-2017, 2017-2018, 2018-2019

I am not sure I completely understand this... but try this

Count(DISTINCT {<[OPR 2018] = {'1B'}, Name *= p({<[Movement Type] = {'Termination Voluntary', 'Termination Involuntary'}, Cycle = {'2018-2019'}>})>} "Global ID")

Count(DISTINCT {<[OPR 2018] = {'1B'}, Name *= e({<[Movement Type] = {'Termination Voluntary', 'Termination Involuntary'}, Cycle = {'2018-2019'}>})>} "Global ID")
