Issue Creating a Reusable Categorization Dimension from a Master Item in Qlik Cloud

Hello everyone,

I’m trying to create a reusable categorization dimension based on my master item CALCUL_%_GROWTH.
The goal is to classify the values into four percentage categories:

  • < 15

  • <35

  • < 75

  • ≥ 75

Here’s the expression I’m currently using:

Aggr( If(fabs(CALCUL_%_GROWTH) < 0.15, '< 15%', If(fabs(CALCUL_%_GROWTH) < 0.35, '< 35%', If(fabs(CALCUL_%_GROWTH) < 0.75, '< 75%', '≥ 75%'))), Customers )

This works, but I’m running into two issues:

  1. I need to duplicate this expression for each dimension (e.g., Customers, Products, etc.), which makes it not reusable.

  2. The filtering doesn’t work globally across all categories — it only applies to the dimension used inside the Aggr() function.

I’d like to know if there’s a better way to define this categorization once and make it work across multiple dimensions while keeping the filtering consistent.

Thanks a lot for your help and suggestions

Hi 

May be this 

 

If( 

Aggr( fabs(CALCUL_%_GROWTH) ,Customers,Products) < 0.15 ,'< 15%' ,

If( 

Aggr( fabs(CALCUL_%_GROWTH) ,Customers,Products) < 0.35 ,'< 35%' ,

If( 

Aggr( fabs(CALCUL_%_GROWTH) ,Customers,Products) < 0.75 ,'< 75%' , '>= 75% 

)))
