Error Management and Data Validity for a dashboard

Hello,

How to check the validity of a dashboard, especially if data is extracted from multiple sources.
What are some of the assertions we can put in place to catch errors?

Hi @Dashboard_Learner ,

a better approach is to validate data at the source, before loaded into Qlik:

  • Uniqueness: Ensure primary keys are unique.
  • Completeness: Check for missing values in critical columns.
  • Data Type Validation: Ensure data types are consistent (e.g., dates are in the correct format).
  • Range Checks: Verify numeric values fall within expected ranges.

Hope this helps you
