Hello,
I have noticed that when we add table into Qlik through the data manager, it automatically creates an auto calendar that basically function like a master calendar. It has an added benefit that its 1 script for all date fields.
However when I store that table in QVD, the autocalendar does not come through.
Also when trying to store the autocalendar as a separate QVD, it also fails and displays a message that the table does not exist.
Below is auto-generated script of the autocalendar:
[autoCalendar]:

//my store script below
Store autoCalendar into [lib://QVDS/Calendar.qvd]
(qvd);
If anyone has any Idea How I can either include the autocalendar as part of table QVD (like join it to the actual table from which the date fields are being derived)
or store a separate QVD
Please help. I know I can create a master Calendar but as you can see if have over 15 date time field and creating a master calendar for each one would be tedious.
Please help.
Thank you,
