Nested IF with AND operator in Qlik Sense

livio218526 — Tue, 14 Nov 2017 09:13:21 GMT

Hi everyone,

i have a problem when i try to create a new calculated field by using a Nested IF.

For example I have a Field Age and I want create a new Field (Color) with 'A' if Age > 10 and < 20, 'B' if Age >=20 and < 40 and so on...

I try to create this function but Qlik show me this error: missing right parenthesis:

if(Age > 10 and Age < 20,A,

`7`	`if(Age` `>= 20 and` `Age` `< 40,B,))`

Thanks,

Livio

Try to create like below

If(Age>100 and Age<20, 'A', If(Age>=20 and Age<40, 'B'))

Remove last comma or put a else value, like:

.....if(Age >= 20 and Age < 40,B))

OR

if(Age >= 20 and Age < 40,B, C))

HI,

You seem to have forgotten the default value.

if(Age > 10 and Age < 20,'A',

`7`	`if(Age` `>= 20 and` `Age` `< 40,'B',???))`

Filling up the ??? will help you. else remove the comma after B.

Hope this helps

Just for reference ...

if([Sale>=10 and Sale <=20 ,Green(),

if(Sale >20 ,Blue(),

if(Sale >0 and Sale <10 ,Black(),

rgb(255,0,0))) )

If([City Code] > 100 and [City Code]<20, 'A',

If([City Code] >= 20 and [City Code] < 40, 'B'))

Re: Nested IF with AND operator in Qlik Sense

True, Qlik consider as 2 fields which called appending. So, you could try [City Code] instead City Code

If([City Code]> 100 and [City Code] <20, 'A', If([City Code] >= 20 and [City Code] < 40, 'B'))

If your field is called City Code, you have to use [City Code].

You should also name your column:

if(Stuff) as CityCodeColor

Hi,

I solve the problem by using the Data Loader but I don't undertand why it's no function using "Add Calculated Field" in Data Model

If..Else.. Available in Script and UI too. Where it not working for you? Can you show image at least?

Hi,

If i use the DATA MANAGER the result is:

By using Data Loader the script is ok and i'm able to create the calculated filed that you can see in the picture up.

Re: Nested IF with AND operator in Qlik Sense

Anil_Babu_Samineni — Tue, 14 Nov 2017 14:09:22 GMT

Seems, Data manager also working. Where you facing the wrong values?

Re: Nested IF with AND operator in Qlik Sense

livio218526 — Tue, 14 Nov 2017 14:56:07 GMT

In the Data Manager like you can see in the picture

You may miss understanding the IF condition

If([City Code]> 10 and [City Code] <20, 'A', If([City Code] >= 20 and [City Code] < 40, 'B', 'C'))

Explanation - If [City Code] arbitrary between 10 and 20 then it returns only A and [City Code] arbitrary between 20 and 40 then it returns only B. That means, If [City Code] < 10 and [City Code] >40 it returns C only. The same way your functionality works

I'm sorry but if i use this script:

If([City Code]> 10 and [City Code] <20, 'A', If([City Code] >= 20 and [City Code] < 40, 'B', 'C'))

the result is ever wrong It's ok only if i use the data loader editor
