Concatenation in script

[andrea0901]

Hi All,

I have a below scenario like :

ORU	Company Code	AP Document	ClearDoc	Value_DC	Amount_in_DC	Final_EUR_WPP	Final EUR
926043	C0_UAX0	C0_1900004314	2000013478	-19833.75	-625.2649189	-626.4866779	947.219567149
926043	C0_UAX0	C0_1900004314	2000013475	-5413.9	-170.6748217	-171.0083179	947.219567149
926043	C0_UAX0	C0_1900004314	2000013476	-4429.55	-139.6428926	-139.9157529	947.219567149
926043	C0_UAX0	C0_1900004314	2000013477	-369.13	-11.63693399	-11.6596724	947.219567149

In the above table, AP Document is same for all 4 rows. only Clear Doc columns are different. so for one AP document i might be having different ClearDoc's. so in that case i need to concatenate all the cleardocs into a single row .

2. and Final EUR has 947.219 which is sum of amount_in_DC only. so i have to get for single AP document all the other columns need to concatneate into single row.

Please provide me inputs on this.

Thank you.

You could just use something like this:

load [AP Document], concat(ClearDoc, ', ') as ClearDoc, sum(Amount_in_DC) as Amount_in_DC
from Source group by [AP Document];

but are you sure that you need that? Quite often a table like yours could be used directly or with a few adjustments in the datamodel and you could aggregate what you need wihin the UI.

hi,

when i applied the same code, i am getting error  as "invalid expression" while reloading .

Below is my code:

LOAD ORU,
[AP Document],
[Value EUR],
[Amount in DC],
concat(ClearDoc,',') as ClearDoc
FROM
[C:\Users\320033629\Desktop\Book09.xlsx]
(ooxml, embedded labels, table is Sheet1)
Group by [AP Document];

[marcus_sommer]

By an aggregation-load must be each field included within an aggregation-function like min/avg/sum/concat or listed within the group by area. In your case maybe in this way:

LOAD ORU,
[AP Document],
sum([Value EUR]) as [Value EUR],
sum([Amount in DC]) as [Amount in DC],
concat(ClearDoc,',') as ClearDoc
FROM
[C:\Users\320033629\Desktop\Book09.xlsx]
(ooxml, embedded labels, table is Sheet1)
Group by [AP Document], ORU;

Is this for Qlik Sense or QlikView? I'd like to move it to the appropriate product forum. Thank you

[marcus_sommer]

Deducing from the provided path it's probably View because in Sense the path starts with lib: unless it's used within the legacy mode which seems rather unlikely in this case.

hi,

i have written the same code but clear doc concatenation didn't happen. Please help.

[marcus_sommer · Accepted solution]

Any error or is table just loaded as it is in Excel? Please check if you really used the right file and if the [AP Document] and ORU have really redundant values to which the other fields could be aggregated.

hi ,

yes u r correct, the ORU was not redundant. now its working.
