Correct Syntax for Desired Formula

SRAMIR — Tue, 09 Jul 2024 15:47:37 GMT

I´m trying to get to the correct syntax for a formula that calculates the percentage of VIN according to the days they have been in workshop.

I´m attaching the my base file, where I have a number of VIN that are in workshop, with the amount of days they have been in varying from each other. What I´m trying to do is showcase the percentage in the KPI in my dashboard (attached image) according to specific conditions. From the total of VIN, I want to show number of VIN that have been more than 50 days, the ones that have been more than 8 days but less than 50 days and finally those that have been in less than 8 days.

I know this can be reached by entering formula in the KPI tool, however I just can´t get to the correct syntax for it. Can anyone help?

Thanks

You can achieve this in Qlik by using COUNT function with the help of SET EXPRESSION, here are the corrected formulas:

1. Total number of VINs:- Count(TOTAL [VIN])

2. VINs more than 50 days: Count({<[Days in workshop]={">50"}>} [VIN])

3. VINs between 8 and 50 days: Count({<[Days in workshop]={">8"}>} [VIN]) - Count({<[Days in workshop]={">50"}>} [VIN])

4. VINs less than 8 days: Count({<[Days in workshop]={"<8"}>} [VIN])

To calculate each percentage, divide each count by the total count of VINs and multiply by 100. For example:

Percentage of VINs more than 50 days: (Count({<[Days in workshop]={">50"}>} [VIN]) / Count(TOTAL [VIN])) * 100

Please replace the formulas in your KPI's with these corrected ones. Let me know if you need further assistance. Marks this as a solution if it help to solve your query

try this expression

Count({<[VIN] = {"=sum([Days in workshop])>50"}>}distinct [VIN])
