Master Calendar with NUM function dates

Thu, 14 Aug 2014 08:44:58 GMT

Hi,

I've been using the NUM function to extract dates from a timestamp as per below:

num(floor(SettlementTime)) as numDateFLOOR

So far so good, works fine.

However, when applying my master calendar, I cannot make it work properly. No error messages but null values.

Any ideas?´

Thanks in advance,

Olle

MAPPING LOAD
rowno() as Month,
'Q' & Ceil (rowno()/3) as Quarter
AUTOGENERATE (12);

Temp:
Load
               min(num(floor(SettlementTime))) as minDate,
               max(num(floor(SettlementTime))) as maxDate

Resident ColumnHeader;
Let varMinDate = Num(Peek('minDate', 0, 'Temp'));
Let varMaxDate = Num(Peek('maxDate', 0, 'Temp'));
DROP Table Temp;

TempCalendar:
LOAD
               $(varMinDate) + Iterno()-1 As Num,
               Date($(varMinDate) + IterNo() - 1) as TempDate
               AutoGenerate 1 While $(varMinDate) + IterNo() -1 <= $(varMaxDate);
MasterCalendar:

               week(TempDate) As Week,
               Year(TempDate) As Year,
               Month(TempDate) As Month,

               ApplyMap('QuartersMap', month(TempDate), Null()) as Quarter,
               Week(weekstart(TempDate)) & '-' & WeekYear(TempDate) as WeekYear,
               WeekDay(TempDate) as WeekDay

Check if the variables (varMinDate, varMaxDate) are actually fetching any value.

Hard to say what's wrong without looking at the data. However, you're reinventing a wheel. That's fine if you're trying to learn how this all works, but if you simply want something that works and is easy to reuse then have a look at the Qlikview Components library.
