Hello Qlik Developers

I have a data base in which i have a table. The data in the table will be updated everyday and deletes the historical data. Suppose yesterday i have data in the table and today when i update the table yesterdays data will be replaced by todays data.

I want to create a qvd in which i can store historical data and current data.

For example today i have data in the table i want to store the data into qvd. Tomorrow the data in the table will be replaced by tomorrows data. I want to store both historical and current data. Can someone help me please. I have the below script in qliksense.

LIB CONNECT TO [PostgreSQL_qvhpepro (americas_kommerel)];

[pg_stat_activity]:

SELECT "datid",

  "datname",

  "pid",

  "usesysid",

  "usename",

  "application_name",

  "client_addr",

  "client_hostname",

  "client_port",

  "backend_start",

    text(date(backend_start)) as Date,

  "xact_start",

  "query_start",

  "state_change",

  "waiting",

  "state",

  "query"

FROM "pg_catalog"."pg_stat_activity";

Thanks

I don't know of anyway to save the two into one qvd but you can save a qvd each day by adding the date or the num of the date to the qvd script. This will give you a qvd per day.

May be like this

LET vDate = Date(Today(), 'YYYYMMDD');

[pg_stat_activity]:

SELECT "datid",

  "datname",

  "pid",

  "usesysid",

  "usename",

  "application_name",

  "client_addr",

  "client_hostname",

  "client_port",

  "backend_start",

    text(date(backend_start)) as Date,

  "xact_start",

  "query_start",

  "state_change",

  "waiting",

  "state",

  "query"

FROM "pg_catalog"."pg_stat_activity";

STORE [pg_stat_activity] into [pg_stat_activity_$(vDate).qvd] (qvd);

I think I used to use num of reload date but the variable works well too.
