Multiple Line Chart

Hello Experts!

I would like to create this on multi line chart Qlik Sense, how to do it?

(something like this)

Multi line Example.png

                                               (This is drawn using MS Paint, cause I do not know how to do it in Qlik Sense)

My Date data is DD/MM/YYYY format, so I have to script it to sort by year? How?

For the x-axis, will it be multiple measures of count([Fruits])?

Thank you!

Hi,

Try this,

Temp:

LOAD * INLINE [

  Date, Category, Sales

  30/12/2016, Apple, 322

  30/12/2016, Orange, 567

  30/12/2016, Pear, 754

  30/12/2016, Grape, 897

  30/12/2016, Banana, 843

  1/1/2017, Apple, 675

  1/1/2017, Orange, 333

  1/1/2017, Pear, 222

  1/1/2017, Grape, 621

  1/1/2017, Banana, 978

  11/11/2015, Apple, 322

  11/11/2015, Orange, 533

  11/11/2015, Pear, 632

  11/11/2015, Grape, 112

  11/11/2015, Banana, 543

];

Fact:

load  *,year(Date) as Year resident Temp;

drop table Temp;

Note: above method is vai script option and you can do it front itself and (year sorting also you can do it in both end)

If you found this helpful please mark it  and close this Issue

Yes. Function Year convert date format to Year. It will be your new dimension.

Thanks Devarsu!

I actually need to sort it by financial year, which is:

1 April 2015 - 31 March 2016

1 April 2016 - 31 March 2017

......

how would the script be?

Sorry for not clarifying earlier.

Hi,

you need to have below

Let varMinDate = Num(Makedate(2016,1,1));

Let varMaxDate = Num(Makedate(Year(today()),Month(today()),Day(today())));

Datefield:

LOAD date($(varMinDate)+IterNo()-1) AS Datefield

AUTOGENERATE (1)

WHILE $(varMinDate)+IterNo()-1<= $(varMaxDate);

Set vFM = 4 ;                                                          // First month of fiscal year

Calendar:

Load Dual(fYear-1 &'/'& fYear, fYear) as FYear,          // Dual fiscal year

     Dual(Month, fMonth)              as FMonth,            // Dual fiscal month

          *;

Load Year + If(Month>=$(vFM), 1, 0)  as fYear,         // Numeric fiscal year

         Mod(Month-$(vFM), 12)+1      as fMonth,         // Numeric fiscal month

          *;

Load Year(Datefield)                  as Year,           // Your standard master calendar

         Month(Datefield)             as Month,

Datefield

Resident Datefield;

DROP Table Datefield;

Hi Deverasu,

Trying the script, I found that some record with same date have different financial year, for example you attached, 30/12/2016 falls under fiscal year 2016 and 2017. It should be 2016 as it has not cross over to 31/2/2017?
