Best Design for Absence Planner

[#1]

Hi,

I have all our data for abscene in qlikview, and I need to design an abscence planner similar to the design below:

I know I will need to use conditional formatting for the different codes which I have and that is fine but I was wondering does anybody know the best object I could use to replicate this in qlikview? I tried a pivot chart but I couldn't seem to get the format right.

There will be 3 fields used:

Month

Day

HCode

Thanks,

Gregg

you'll need to use something like this for conditional formatting in background color while writing ur expression

if(rangemin(.5,rangemax(condition),-.5)) < 0,

-Sqrt(-(rangemin(.5,rangemax(condition),-.5)))/(-.5)),

Sqrt((rangemin(.5,rangemax(condition),-.5)))/(.5))),

ARGB(255, 255, 0, 0), ARGB(255, 0, 255, 0), ARGB(255, 255, 255, 255))

Hi,

Thanks for that. At the moment I am concentrating more on the design of the object for now.

I need to use a landscape table and pivot off the month as far as I can see but am struggling with this.

Hi!

Maybe you can create a table with inline fields by day and month with a calendar and then do all the calculations via rule.

See the example attached.

Thanks Mark.

Can you let me know what the following piece of code does:

load dual (WeekDay(Date),DayOfMonth) as X

Ignore that, I meant to take that out (please mark my answer as correct if you are happy with it!)

No problem!

Just another question. How did you get each day number across the “D” expression?

I have a calendar table with Week Day but I can’t get it to repeat the days across the chart as you do:

My Calendar code is:

LET varMinDate = Num('01/01/2012');
LET varMaxDate = Num(today());
LET varToDay = Num(today());

//************** Temporary Calendar *************

TempCalendar:
LOAD
$(varMinDate) + rowno() - 1 AS Num,
date($(varMinDate) + rowno() -1) AS TempDate
AutoGenerate $(varMaxDate) - $(varMinDate) + 1;

MasterCalendar:
LOAD   TempDate AS Date,
Week(TempDate) AS Week,
Year(TempDate) AS Year,
Month(TempDate) AS Month,
Day(TempDate) AS Day,
WeekDay(TempDate) AS WeekDay,
  'Q' & Ceil(Month(TempDate) / 3 ) AS Quarter,
Date(MonthStart(TempDate), 'MMM-YYYY') AS MonthYear,
num(Week(TempDate),'00')&'-'&WeekYear(TempDate) AS WeekYear,
InYearToDate(TempDate,$(varToDay),0)* -1 AS CurYTDFlag,
InYearToDate(TempDate,$(varToDay),-1)* -1 AS LastYTDFlag

Resident TempCalendar
ORDER BY TempDate ASC;

DROP Table TempCalendar;

Thanks,

Gregg

Make sure your chart is a povot table.

then click "Day" heading and drag it

See the attachments (Can't embed the images for some reason)

(Also I just noticed you have day number as a dimension, you don't need that you need the week number for the month)

This was on the document I already uploaded, but here it is again..

=if(month(weekend(Date))= month(Date),div(day(WeekEnd(Date)),7),div(day(Weekend(Date,-1)),7)+1)+1
