As-Of Table

re: Hic's Blog 

https://community.qlik.com/t5/Qlik-Design-Blog/The-As-Of-Table/ba-p/1466130

and the need to have a Month field on the master calendar that starts with the first day of the month.

**********

What if the master calendar your using is a fiscal calendar where the month start date is not always the 1st day of the month can you still use the Month field in creating your As-Of Table?

The as-of-table logic shouldn't be touched if you connect it with a financial calendar which may have an offset from n months and maybe even not starting on the first day else overlapping to the calendar-dates in any way. Beside this I assume that you may need more as a single-calendar - means a normal calendar, a financial one, maybe others too and depending on the requirements even a canonical calendar to match some of them together.

Marcus,

 

I'm looking to create an app using a sales fact tbl, purchasing fact tbl, and a financial calendar along with some other dim tables.    The fact tables will have multiple date fields, looking at your feedback is there a blog, book, or in depth article that would give me more information on how to tie these dates into my financial calendar so I can use one calendar to see what was purchased , received, invoiced, shipped, etc.?

 

Thanks,

 

John
