Sorting order in Qlik sense

Hi All,

Need a quick help on the below data.

I have the table with below set .The data is sorted by Customer, Prod_Code, Date and the comparison happens between current date and previous date. If the Prod_Code is there in the previous week then the Type will be Old , other wise New.

And  rowno 2 is the repeat of rowno1 , hence the expected Type should be New. But it is coming as Old .Below is my code.

Can anyone suggest if anything missing here so that the values not coming properly.

Tab1:
Load
Customer, Prod_Code,Date, Receipient Id, Type
From file
Order by Customer, Prod_Code,Date, Receipient Id, Type;

Tab2:
Load *,
If( Customer=Peek(Customer) and Prod_Code=Peek(Prod_Code) and Date=Peek(Date)
and Peek(Type)='New', New',Type) as [Expected Type]
Resident Tab1;

Drop table Tab1;

 

Customer  Prod_Code Date Receipient Id Type Expected Type
W32547 GEN-012 01-06-2021 12211 New New
W32547 GEN-012 01-06-2021 12212 Old New
W32547 GEN-013 01-06-2021 12213 New New
W32547 GEN-013 08-06-2021 12234 Old Old
W32547 GEN-015 08-06-2021 12235 New New
W32547 GEN-012 30-08-2021 54345 New New
W32547 GEN-013 30-08-2021 54355 Old Old

You cannot use an "order by" together with a "Load ...from". You must use a "Load ...resident".

Try

Tab1:
Load ... From file ;

Tab2:
Load *,
If( Customer=Peek(Customer) and Prod_Code=Peek(Prod_Code) and Date=Peek(Date)
and Peek(Type)='New', New',Type) as [Expected Type]
Resident Tab1
Order by Customer, Prod_Code,Date, Receipient Id, Type;

Drop table Tab1;

Hi @hic , 

I have implemented in the same way. But it is not giving the expected result for the column [Expected Type].

 

Tab1:
Load ... From file ;

Tab2:
Load *,
If( Customer=Peek(Customer) and Prod_Code=Peek(Prod_Code) and Date=Peek(Date)
and Peek(Type)='New', New',Type) as [Expected Type];

Load *,
If( Customer=Peek(Customer) and Prod_Code=Peek(Prod_Code),'Old', 'New') as [Type];
Resident Tab1
Order by Customer, Prod_Code,Date, Receipient Id, Type;

Drop table Tab1;
