if(WildMatch(Cn_Name,'AUSTRALIA','JAPAN','',' ','-') ,'TECHNO',Cn_Name) as Cn_Name

FROM

Try If(match(Cn_Name, 'AUSTRALIA','JAPAN','-') or len(trim(Cn_Name))=0, 'TECHNO',Cn_Name) as Cn_Name

The Len(Trim(..)) construction will not only replace null values but also empty strings and values that contain only spaces.

You can also use QlikView null-handling functionality, such as NullAsValue.

Check out my new book QlikView Your Business. I describe there in detail how to deal with NULL values (among many other developer techniques).

Hi Arjun,

Try Mapping Load in the third table and remove first table.  This will fix.

Hi jagan moha,

Thank you so much for your out of box idea -mapping load.I added gwassenaar's advice as well in mapping table- len(trim(Cn_Name))=0 .

if(WildMatch(Cn_Name,'AUSTRALIA','JAPAN','',' ','-') or len(trim(Cn_Name))=0 ,'TECHNO',Cn_Name) as Cn_Name

Thank you all.

I am not able to reload your application so I implemented my logic in calculated dimension. I think, if you do the same in script, it will work.
