Hello,

I'm using QlikSens Desktop

I want to create KPI visualisation whith show total SALES for the current month.

I Created a variable currentMonth = Month(today())

currentMonth value = juil.

currentMonthTotalSales = Sum({< [DateCmd_PK-Date_PK.autoCalendar.Month]  = {'juil.'}> } Total_HT)  ---> WORKS

currentMonthTotalSales = Sum({< [DateCmd_PK-Date_PK.autoCalendar.Month]  = {currentMonth}> } Total_HT)  DOES NOT WORKS

I also Tried

currentMonthTotalSales = Sum({< [DateCmd_PK-Date_PK.autoCalendar.MonthRelNo]  = {6}> } Total_HT)  --> this does not work also

could some one help me on this issue please ?

try this

= Sum({< [DateCmd_PK-Date_PK.autoCalendar.Month]  = {"$(=MaxString(YourMonthFiled))"}> } Total_HT)

[nsetty]

currentMonthTotalSales = Sum({< [DateCmd_PK-Date_PK.autoCalendar.Month]  = {${currentMonth}}> } Total_HT)

Does above work?

[dwforest]

month() returns a dual value and is likely using the number for comparison, try using monthname()

currentMonth = MonthName(today())

[balabhaskarqlik]

currentMonth = Month(Max(date));

Expression:

currentMonthTotalSales = Sum({< [DateCmd_PK-Date_PK.autoCalendar.Month]  = {'$( =$(currentMonth) )'}> } Total_HT)

This will be helpful:

currentMonthTotalSales = Sum({< [DateCmd_PK-Date_PK.autoCalendar.Month]  ={$(=currentMonth)}> } Total_HT) //with parentesis...

Or:

currentMonthTotalSales = Sum({< [DateCmd_PK-Date_PK.autoCalendar.Month]={$(=Max( [DateCmd_PK-Date_PK.autoCalendar.Month]))}> } Total_HT)

Or

currentMonthTotalSales = Sum({< [DateCmd_PK-Date_PK.autoCalendar.Month]={$(=Month (today ()))}> } Total_HT)

thank you for all your answers it helped me well.

I think that all your answer where right
I m new to QlikSens and the syntax wasn't pretty easy to understand for retriving local variable for me !!
Special thanks to "Thiago Justen Teixeira"
