Calculated (value List) dimention label issue

Wed, 27 Feb 2013 07:26:04 GMT

Hello All,

I have a calculated dimention as say

=ValueList('India','United States')

I want to label my expression as their ccy as

So I have written simple expression in label part as,

=if( ValueList('India','United States','Japan') = 'India' , 'INR' , 'USD')

But it does not Show correct results, it always shows else part. Is there anything else we need to do here.

Thanks for your suggestions.

i am not sure i understood you but

the lablel of a column is one for all value so what happens

is that qlikview calculate the label with all the values so it can only bring back one value

so in the label expression your equation looks like if(india,us,japan=india then, else) this will allways get the else result

What I mean is, I have Chart table like,

India | US

Label-> CCY

2010 1.1 | 6.3

2011 2.3 | 7.8

Country dimention is also ValueList('India','US')

I want to add label to my expression as CCY which is if( valuelist ('India','US') ='India','INR','USD')

to get output,

India | US

INR | USD

2010 1.1 | 6.3

2011 2.3 | 7.8

Is it possible?

as to my knowledge , i don't think you can achive what you want

i like iwrote in the first respond , the expression label is calulated document wise, i.e one result to all dimensions

values,

wht you can do is in your value list to write india- 'INR' , USA-US
