Modify my Data Model

Hi all,

I have a data model working fine in my Qlik App. But now, I have a new requirement that I believe (not really sure) will need a modify my current model:

The new requirement is create a consolidation pie chart with all types of Projects (A + B + C), I want unify in a new dimension: "Group", alowin navigation from Group to different Projects.

A new relationship between Projects is not possibble because a circular reference will appears. Neither is it possible unify

projects cause they have different data. So, I think to modify my model this way:

All Money Exchange will have the same data, but i don't know another wave to do it. Anybody can check my solution or give me a better idea?

Thanks for advance.

Jorge

Hi Erebits,

You can:

1) Concatenate the project fact tables in one table.

Use the Concatenate command.

2) Create a LinkTable to do that in Qlik. In general, linktable it´s a table that link the common fields in the fact table.

FactTable1:
Load <fields>,
          <common field1> &'/'& <common field2>   as key_link
From <...>;

FactTable2:
Load <fields>,
           <common field1> &'/'& <common field2>   as key_link
From <...>;

LinkTable:
Load key_link, <common field1>, <common field2>, ...
Resident FactTable1;

LinkTable:
Load key_link, <common field1>, <common field2>, ...
Resident FactTable2;

DROP FIELDS <common field1>, <common field2> FROM FactTable1, FactTable2;

Depending the size and the use, you can choose the better way to do that.

Good Luck,

Pedro
