Accumulation in Qlik Sense

[#1]

Hi,

Anyone out there who knows how to accumulate a measure in a chart object in Qlik Sense. In QlikView I used to choose "Full accumulation" on the expressions tab, but there's no such feature in Qlik Sense, from what I can see...

Thanks

Pedro,

It seems that "Full accumulation" is not yet implemented in Sense ( looking at the help area), however, I would guess there would be a a way by doing set analysis, hopefully someone can provide such workaround. ( sorry I am not a developer guru =(  )

Hi Pedro,

In Sense (as in QlikView), you can use the RANGESUM function in combination with the ABOVE function to accumulate the values you need.

In this case, you could use an expression like this:

rangesum( above( sum([Expression1]),0,rowno()))

To get this result (left: original graph; right: accumulation with RANGESUM):

Hi Pedro,

Here is a work-around that you can use for the Sense UI measures.  Try using the RangeSum and Above/Below commands.

Example:

RangeSum(Above(Sum(FieldName),0,rowno()))

Thanks Borja.  You beat me to it!

The RangeSum function did the trick.Thank you both ever so much for the help!

Hey Borja,

Do you know how I can get this to work with Multiple Dimensions?

For example I have a stacked bar chart with 2 dimensions and 1 expressions, but this expression is not accumulating in QlikView Sense " rangesum( above( sum([Expression1]),0,rowno())) "

Thank you!

Hi,

Does anyone how the expression would be if it was a line chart rather than a bar chart??

I tried applying the expression above and it didn't work.

Many thanks in advance.

Found this awesome video that explains it perfectly.

The basic idea is this:

1. Create 2 variables in Qlik Sense. I just used the editors variable creation window.

Variable 1:

Name:accum

Value:='RangeSum(Above('

Variable 2:

Name:/accum

Value:=',0,RowNo(TOTAL)))'

Usage:

$(accum)(Your Measure)$(/accum)

NOTE:

If you are going to create the variable using the SET function, in the script. Then you need to change these (' ') to these (" ").

Let me know if it helped.

Borja,

What does the 0 mean in that equation?

rangesum( above( sum([Expression1]),0,rowno()))
