Qlik Sense Selecting Arbitrary Date Range

New to QLIK Sense.

How would you go about creating a set of Filters to allow for selecting all data between two arbitrary dates ?

Could you please provide an example ?

Thank You

Hi Glenn,

To do this you will likely need to create some sort of extension object.  You may want to check Qlik Branch to see if someone has already created one.  In QlikView this can be achieved using actions (which are not currently available in Qlik Sense)

Good morning Josh.

Thank You for the reply for Arbitrary Dates.

I reviewed the video for Qlikview but have not seen in Qlik Sense how I can create List boxes and set triggers.

Any recommendation on how to get around that ?

Hi Calero,

Triggers are not currently possible in Qlik Sense so you will not be able to approach this the same way.  I would recommend you investigate using an extension object to see if you can achieve what you want.  There are lots of great extension posted on Qlik Branch such as this slider that may work for you.  http://branch.qlik.com/projects/showthread.php?396-qsVariable&highlight=date
