Data Manager

One of my favourite features of Qlik is this.

t's great for managing association, editing columns, checking a data type etc, and turn to this before Data Model viewer every time.

I just wish it would always be available regardless of whether I use Data Manager to add/load data or not.

Sometimes I find the "auto-generated" section disappears when I add more information via the Load Editor.

It's really frustrating as I then have to add a dummy file in the Data Manager, reload both the script in the Data Load Editor and Synchronise the Tables in the Data Manager to get the "auto-generated" section back.

Only then can I use Data Manager to review all my data again.

Is there a simpler solution to this?

Thanks,

Hi,

That sounds like a bug and it shouldn't disappear.

I would report that if you are willing to use the time to do it, or else I think you are better off with the scripted way if you look at practicality and not losing your work.


Best,

Hi Ali,

Yes I can report it but not sure how.

I'm pretty sure its either when I make new connection or add a new file via the Data Load Editor.

But I guess this is also a broader question:

Can/will the Data Manager data preview/edit functionality always be made available (regardless of how the data is added)

Plus a minor question on how to reinstate DM easily.

Cheers,

Colin
