Missing Fields

[DCO]

Hello everyone,

I’m working on a Qlik expression to identify missing values in the site_name field, but I’m running into an issue. The current logic doesn’t catch cases where the field contains a placeholder like '-'.

Here’s the expression I’m using:

If(
Count(
DISTINCT If(
Match(Product, '$(VTypeProduct)') and
Match(ClassProduct, 'Device', 'Hardware') and
Match(GenericClass, 'Ser', 'Brute') and
Len(Trim(site_name)) = 0 or (site_name=''),
resource
)
) > 0,
'❌',
'✅'
)

The goal is to return ❌ if any matching records have a missing or placeholder site_name, and ✅ otherwise.

Could someone please confirm if this logic is correct or suggest improvements?

Thanks in advance!

I don't think anyone is going to be answer this except you - we can't see your data and we have no way of knowing which placeholders might be in use. 

Regarding:

Len(Trim(site_name)) = 0 or (site_name='')

The second half should be unnecessary, since the trim of empty string is length 0.

'-' this could be a real dash or null() value in both cases use the IF statement first if its cover all cases.

if isnull(site_name) , if len(site_name), if site_name='-'
