Nprinting Condition Task

[ch_riadh]

Hi,

I have a table with 4 Fields:

1- Brand

2- Product

3- Date

4- Stock

i want to create Condition task in nprinting 18 Nov, when the stock of any product from any branch on any date = 0,

Send me a report details (Brand, Product and Date).

Thank you

read documentation first to understand how conditions work.

https://help.qlik.com/en-US/nprinting/June2019/Content/NPrinting/ReportsDevelopment/Conditions.htm

then depending on your datasource  (QlikView or Qlik Sense) you can use chart table in qlik to create condition object.

If you have something else in mind please provide detailed information regarding setup, report and what you want to report in form of mockup so we have something to work with.

From your question it is not clear whether you actually need a condition or filter

I'm using qliksense with nprinting 18

for example after reload data today morning 

The stock for brand A of product X on  21/10/2019 become 0.
so i need to receive an email with the brand, product and date for that 0.

Ok then, build the table in Qlik Sense to show only 0 values and use it as a condition (chart has values) to run report and as a source to show which brand, product and date it is for. Obviously this will very much depend on how you pull data. Does your 0 stock actually contain value 0 or it has no associated value (hence you assume it is 0)

If you want real examle share some sample qvf app so i can build on top of it.

cheers

when no stock available it shows 0.

Hi,

Note also that Qlik NPrinting publish tasks can be triggered only on a time bases or via APIs. There are not events driven executions.

So, after creating the condition, you need to schedule the publish task at an adequate interval of time. It will be run on time bases and, if the condition will be met, the reports will be created.

Best Regards,

Ruggero

So,

As i said before - how you built your report depends mainly  on your data model. Given the data you have provided you can simply built an object in Qlik Sense which will be your condition chart as well as your report source. Note that i specifically asked how you know that there is 0 stock and if this is a record with 0 value or zero as result of calculation which returns 0 due to lack of associated values).

See sample qvf based on your data source. You need to use this object as condition (Chart has values) and use it to build your report template. 

Then schedule your NPrinting distribution task to be triggered right after your qlik sense finishes reload. You can use API to do this or set regular time based trigger. About API and task chaining you can read here: https://nprintingadventures.wordpress.com/2019/04/08/nprinting-api-qlik-rest-subroutines/

In this task setup condition "Chart has values" and use this chart as condition true/false indicator.

If you have different data model then you need to attach your qvf  file with actual data model. You can scramble data if you need.

I use the same qvf you sent to me, and create a condition chat has value then send me mail.
it works fine when there is a stock with 0.

but when i try to add stock to my data. (all products have a stock), and run the task. i still recieve the report with

[Lech_Miszkiewicz]

You need to build your expression in qlik sense stock to only show 0 values which i did by using set analysis in my example. Without your data model i will not be able to help
