How to count distinct value depending on some other tables/values

Fri, 01 Mar 2013 15:32:07 GMT

Hi everyone,

I have been searchin and trying for a long time but I'am stuck with this problem .

I really need help.

I am sure there is an easy QlikView solution..

I have 2 tables: Transport and vehicules.

In my table vehicule, only some of them are available for transport.

Transport occurs to a date.

Vehicules can make more than one transport the same day.

I need to count the number of different vehicules that have been working per day and those that haven't benn working that same day in comparison to my number of available vehicules .

Exemple of data

Tables: TRANSPORT VEHICULE

Date Vehicule Vehicule Available?

01/01/2012 A A Y

01/01/2012 A B Y

01/01/2012 A C Y

01/01/2012 B D Y

01/01/2012 C E N

02/01/2012 A

02/01/2012 B

02/01/2012 A

03/01/2012 C

So here, I have a total of 4 vehicule available.

on the 01/01/2012, 3 out of 4 were actually active and 1 out of 4 was inactive.

on the 02/01/2012, 2 out of 4 were actually active and 2 out of 4 was inactive.

on the 03/01/2012, 1 out of 4 were actually active and 3 out of 4 was inactive.

Seems really to be easy but I can't get trhough even with set analysis..

Thanks for your help !!!

Is Count(Distinct Vehicule) not working?

No.

I tried it 😉

If I select a day, of course I can easily get the distinct count of the ones that have been driving .

But then I can't get the inactive and the correct total.

I still need to be able to select a date.

so, for day 01/01/2012 i can have:

=Count({<Available?={"Y"}>} Distinct Vehicule) => give me 3 OK

=Count({1<Available?={"Y"}>} Distinct Vehicule) => will give me the 5 number instead of 4

Hi,

Now my data get more complicated 😉

I have a type of vehicule and 2 dates that tells me when the vehicule was bought and when it was sold.

How can I get the inactives for each type of vehicule and take into account the selling part?

In other words, if my vehicule was sold at the selected date, it shouldn't be counted as actif (of course) neither inactif as it wasn't part of my fleet?

See the qvw in attached.

For the 3 of january I should have a total vehicule = 3 and only one active.

Thnaks for your help 😉
