Hello all,
I have a problem I need some assistance with, Thank you
I have an [EMPLOYEE] table with [EFF_FROM_DATE] and [EFF_TO_DATE], currently to count [EMP_ID] successfully, I leverage a MasterCalendar and IntervalMatch(MASTER.CALENDAR_DT). I now have to add another table EMP_ACTION: to my model on [DATABASE_KEY].
EMP_ACTION table has [PROMOTION_CODE] and [EFFECTIVE_DATE] after associating the tables on [DATABASE_KEY], my requirement is to count the number of total employees and corresponding number of employees that have gotten promotions in the same visualization. My issue is, employee count uses IntervalMatch(CALENDAR_DT), and PROMO count uses [EFFECTIVE_DATE], individually each calculation returns the correct number of record, however together the number are off. Is there a solution to have one calendar return the correct counts for each aggregation?
Have you seen this blog post by HIC? Canonical Date
If you treat your "CALENDAR_DT" and the "EFFECTIVE_DATE" as different datetypes in a date bridge you could be able to solve your issue.
Hi, Vegar
I have been working on a canonical date through the weekend with "Business intelligence with Qlik Sense" book; I gave a try to the model described in the link you provided... and there is still no success.
I do really appreciate your input.
Sincerely,
