Pivot table ledger

Hello,

 

For a client of mine I have to create a pivot table for a digital ledger.

Here is what needs to happen:

There is a field with 6 numbers (xxxxxx) This field is an accounting number.

Now The client wants a pivot table where the first stage is 1 number, when you fold that open 2 and when you fold that open you have an overview.

 

Simply put

X

XX

XXXXXX

Is there a way that Qliksense would read the numeric value and divide the lines into the correct category? There are seven.

Here is an example with numbers.

1

10

100564

2

20

200456

3

30

300987

And so on.

 

Anyone have a clue?

Thanks

It's easiest to create new fields in the script in this case:

left(Account,1) as Level1,
left(Account,2) as Level2

Then use Level1, Level2, Account as dimensions in your pivot table. 

You could also create Level1/2 as calculated dimensions, but script would be preferable.

Hello Rob,

 

I'm trying it now.

So If I put in this simple formula, my Accountnumbers will fall under the different levels themselves?

 

Thanks

Yes, if you create the new Level1 and Level2 fields from the AccountNumber field, all will fall into the correct level automatically.
