Added Field From Data Model Loader not appearing in Visualisation

Hi

I am struggling with an existing report to make a new field visible in a report.

The steps I have followed are listed as followsL

  • Amended QVDs to add the field from the database - the new field is visible in QVD when running QVD
  • Amended QVW in data model loader layer - the new field is visible and NO ERRORS are showing
  • In visualisation layer, which is just a simple table with some dimenisations for filtering, the new field is not appearing as a column in the table.
  • I can see the field when I check Document Properties and Sheet Properties it is THERE!

So, it appears to me as though something is blocking the field from being shown in the table. There is nothing really in the Visualisation. As far as I understand it the data is simply loaded from the data model layer.

This is NOT QlikViewSense, the report uses QlikView.

Therefore, my question - What do I need to do to make a field added all the way from QVD to Data Model Layer in QVW to be visible in the visualisation? There is no additional aggregation or formatting, it is simply showing whatever the value is/

There is nothing you need to do. 

If you look at the data model viewer do you see the field?

- It could be your load script is selecting explicit list of fields towards the end.

- fields are hidden (with hideprefix)

- fields are dropped (maybe by naming convention).
