How to Convert a Bar Chart to a Straight Table in Qlik Sense

[Frank_S]

Question

How do I convert a Qlik Sense Bar Chart to a Table without having to recreate the table?

Environment

• Qlik Sense: All supported versions

Solution:

• edit the Qlik Sense sheet containing the Bar Chart
• make a copy of the bar chart then convert it to a straight table by dragging the 'table' object onto the copied bar chart.
• click 'convert to table'

 

Result:

Use Case: NPrinting Reporting

Keep in mind that Qlik Sense bar charts are not supported for use as exportable data 'tables' with NPrinting. (See unsupported and partially supported objects here https://help.qlik.com/en-US/nprinting/Content/NPrinting/ReportsDevelopment/Qlik-objects-supported-NP... )

To use the data in the bar chart in an NPrniting report, you can simply follow the steps above and then

• Reload the NPrinting connection to this QS app
• find the new object is visible in the tables list

Then you can use the straight table data in your NPrinting report.
