Is it possible to count the firstsortedvalues

Wed, 25 Nov 2020 16:16:04 GMT

Dear Mates,

I am new to qlikview,currently pursuing a developer course.

I had given an assignment to do a simple statistics on some past data.Everything went well but now I am stuck on.I need to get the count of group who have gained maximum points.I was able to show it in a straight box but cant show the same on a line chart.I need to know is it possible to count the firstsortedvalue.For your understanding I have given a sample.I have two tables,one having location,points and groupid and the other table having groupid and groups.

location,points,groupid

aa,100,A1

aa,150,B2

aa,300,C3

bb,200,A2

bb,300,B2

bb,100,C3

etc

groupid,group

A1,A

A2,A

B1,B

B2,B

C3,C

etc

So here winner groupid from location aa is C3 which belongs to group C ,which I got using firstSortedVlaue,likewise there are more than 100 locations so I need to count the number of times each group came like A=10,B=5,C=12 etc.

I created a straight table with location as dimension and used the expression firstsortedvalue(group,-points) to get group with maximum points .

So please help me to find out the solution.Thank you for your time.

Try this as the dimension:

=Aggr(FirstSortedValue(group, -points), location)

Expression:

=Count(Aggr(FirstSortedValue(group, -points), location))

Hello,

In the example above if I add one more field 'year',how can I show which group Id wins each year in each location.I tried to plot a chart with location as dimension but couldnt get the desired result.The purpose of this chart is to predict the winning probability of groupid in respective location in coming years.I hope my query is clear.

Thank you for your time.
