Percent Calculation using Max Function

[mhmmd_srf]

Hi all,

I have a Straight Table which is having calculation like below:

Sum(UnitsSold)/max(Forecast).

In the above example the calculation should be 715/252 = 2.83.

The same calculation we need to capture in Single field, as we need to use this in Set expression.

The calculated field is capturing data in row level, and summing up. And showing 5.29.

But I need 2.83 should show in the last column and it should repeat for each row.

Could anyone help me do the same.

I am attaching a sample qvw.

Please help.

Thanks,

Sarif

Hi

maybe :

Sum(total UnitsSold)/max(total Forecast)    ?

if you omit "total "  that sums each line

Dear Mohammad,

Max Function use in Script - And Group by.

Use value in the front Expression.

[tresesco]

Try:

=sum( total UnitsSold)/Max(total ForecastQuantity)

[mhmmd_srf]

are you trying to say in script? or in front end.

I have a feild called[UnitsSold/ForecastQuantity].I need to use this only.

because we need to use the same field in another calculation in next chart.

I already tried the same. But result is same.

hi Pratyush,

Thanks for your reply.

Instead of creating variable, if we use max(Forecast) in denominator, then also it is working.

But i want to use the field [UnitsSold/ForecastQuantity]. As this would be using in Set expression next chart calculation.

Thanks,

With the field [UnitsSold/ForecastQuantity] alone, I don't see a logic of calculating back what you are looking for. It (the possibility of solution) would be simple mathematics rather than qlik for understanding what you are trying to get.

You can probably use [UnitsSold/v_n_max_val] in your next chart.
