Total does not add up

Tue, 15 Oct 2013 10:17:04 GMT

I have a problem with a pivot table where the total do not add up.

I have a buying template and want to calculate the stock required which is (if negative , give zero):

if(Average*7-[Stock on Hand]+[Sales Order]<0,0,Average*7-[Stock on Hand]+[Sales Order]) .

The only problem im having is that total of the "stock required" is incorrect. The total should be 10,697 and not 9768.

im aware that the solution works for a straight table. I want it to work for a pivot table.

I have attached the Qlikview Model as well as the data (in excel)

Please can you help.

kind regards

Try like this

In your expression:

=If(RowNo() = 0 or IsNull(RowNo()), Sum(if(Average*7-[Stock on Hand]+[Sales Order]<0,0,Average*7-[Stock on Hand]+[Sales Order])),

if(Average*7-[Stock on Hand]+[Sales Order]<0,0,Average*7-[Stock on Hand]+[Sales Order]))

You can look into the method

Sum of rows in pivot tables using adavanced aggregation

in the Help.

This will look like

=sum( aggr(

if(Average*7-[Stock on Hand]+[Sales Order]<0,0,Average*7-[Stock on Hand]+[Sales Order])

,[Component Code],[ITEM CODE]))

for your expression.

Probably there is even an easier solution.

Hi All

Thank you for the responses. It works on the QV Template given. I'm going to try it out on my actual model and will let all know regarding the outcome.

Hi Mayil

Your formula works.

However , if i use the heading names in the stock required , the formula does not work. (see model attached).

Can you tell me why?

I change the names of the headings of the 3 columns :

ie Average = NewAVG

Stock on Hand = NewSOH

Sales Order = NewSO

In my actual buying temple, each of the columns is a complex if formula, hence i use the name of the headings in my stock required formla.

kind regards
