How to overcome the limited characters in an expression in QlikSense Pivot table?

[varunreddy]

Hi All,

I was trying to create the pivot table in QlikSense. For that I am trying to copy the expression already created in QlikView and trying to paste it in QlikSense. But it is only pasting the code upto certain characters. Is there a way to overcome this limit issue in QlikSense?

Thanks in advance!

HI,

I am assuming that you have some comments in your expression - if you paste it in the small window (without actually entering expression editor) your expression will be placed in single row, and your comments could brake it).

I suggest you copy your expression from QlikView and then enter expression editor in Qlik Sense and only then paste it.

however if your problem is different then maybe screenshot what are you talking about. I am not aware of any limited characters!

Hi Lech,

I am trying the say way you mentioned but still seeing the limitation.

Expression I am trying to copy from QV is : 

=
if(DataType = 'Individuals and Organisations' and Date <> '$(vSixMonths)' and
(
(sum({< [Level 1 Group] = {'Individuals and Organisations'}>}[Total Number of Passing Records])

After(sum({< [Level 1 Group] = {'Individuals and Organisations'}>}[Total Number of Records Evaluated])))

I've overcome this in the past by moving some parts or all of the expression into variables.

[varunreddy]

Hi Roger,

I am seeing the same issue with the expression (i.e. limitation). I tried to come few lines of code and trying to use it in the expression, but not working.

Variable - vTest.

Expression tried: $(vTest), vTest, =$(vTest), =vTest. (None of them is working). Can you please help me in fixing this?

there is no limitation on expressions 

[cpomeren003]

Actually there is a limit to the amount of characters you can use inside an expression. Just keep copying some lorem ipsum and you will see that after a certain amount of characters it will prevent you from typing any more.

The thing is, your expression you posted isn't long at all and doesn't reach that limit. It isn't even close. If you do somehow got a expression that's too long, you can replace all the long strings with shorter variables. That should make sure you got way less characters and then it should fit.

I could make you a .qvf with a pivot table that has the entire formula inside an expression?

[varunreddy]

Could you please attach the QVF file with this expression?

Try $(vTest) as the expression and in the variable remove the leading '=' ie the variable should start with 'if(DataType)' not '=if(DataType)

Hi Roger,

Thanks for your help. Learn't something new 🙂

I have couple of questions.

Earlier in the variable I had '=' sign. So it was failing to calculate?

You told me to use $(vTest) in the expression. Is that $ evaluating the varilable?

Cheers,

Varun.
