Interesting chart. Appears to show the first 2 quarters, the first half, the last two months, and the ytd values, and you'd like all values in each bucket as appropriate. I don't think QlikView can put a single value into more than one bucket ( ie, count it twice). Anyone?

There are 2 approaches and both involve setting the data model up right

1. Have Base/Actual as a boolean field in the data model and use it as a dimension. Then add 5 expressions in the chart for each grouping of Base/Actual. This will probably require you to pivot the table in the load script.

2. Create a custom lookup table that maps the date buckets to the detailed months.

So if your main table had Month, create a lookup table that maps each bucket to all the months that go into it like this. ChartValue would then become your dimension and Base and ACtual would be your 2 expressions. The table could be calculated dynamically based off logic to create the appropriate buckets depending on which month you reload.

Thanks for your reply.

Actually i want it as dynamic purpose . i want this type of chart as per user selection made of year. Suppose if user select Year = 2013 then this graph 'll show

Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4, H1,H2,YTD Dec because all the data have been covered up for all month for Actual and base.

similarly if user select 2014 then Graph 'll show

Hi,

if want to do this dynamically then dynamically generate the list Jonathan presented in script like this:

MasterTableDimension:

Load

Null() as ChartValue

Autogenerate (0);

left join (MasterCalendar)

Load

Year,

max(Month) as MaxMonth

Resident MasterCalendar group by Year;

for each vDim in 'Quarter', 'HalfYear'

Concatenate(MasterTableDimension)

load

Date,

$(vDim) as ChartValue

Resident MasterCalendar;

Years:

load distinct

Year

Resident MasterCalendar;

for I = 0 to (noofrows('Years')-1)

let vYear = peek('Year', $(I), 'Years');

Concatenate(MasterTableDimension)

load

Date,

addmonths(MaxMonth, -1) & chr(38) & MaxMonth as ChartValue

Resident MasterCalendar where Year = $(vYear) and Month >= addmonths(MaxMonth, -1) ;

Concatenate(MasterTableDimension)

load

Date,

'YTD ' & MaxMonth as ChartValue

Resident MasterCalendar where Year = $(vYear);

Hope this helps.

Best Regards

Stefan

Hi,

then you have to modify the date range of your calendar from the example you posted you have:

LET vDateMin = Num(MakeDate(2006,1,1));

LET vDateMax = Num(Today());

define these start and enddates according to their occurence in your facttable for example:

Temp:

load

min(Date) as Min,

max(Date) as Max

Resident Facttable;

LET vDateMin = Num(peek('Min', 0, 'Temp'));

LET vDateMax = Num(peek('Max', 0, 'Temp'));

drop table Temp;

Hi,

yes your Calendar will "grow" if you join the ChartDimension Field into the Calendar because for example Half Year and Quarter have common dates.
