Hi. I’m new to Qlik and I am dealing with HR data modeling.
In the case of a single personnel appointment, There are starting dates and end dates as START_YMD and END_YMD.
I am trying to distinguish if a designated date point is between START_YMD and END_YMD. (Given that dates from minimum to maximum dates are generated by the master calendar)
The way I tried is that I generated incrementing dates starting from START_YMD to END_YMD as shown below.
However, I wonder if there are other ways done without making dummy dates.
Is there anyone who dealt with a similar case? Any recommendations are appreciated.
Hi there,
Welcome to the Qlik community!
Issues of this kind are usually solved in the data model using an INTERVALMATCH load - look it up in the documentation. I have a very detailed description of this technique in my book, if you'd like to check it out.
Use Intervalmatch function to get the values between start and end date.
