Dynamic Dimensions

[kerkying]

Hi, new to Qlikview here and I am trying to create a bar chart with a dynamic time dimension.

Behaviour of the chart should be like this:

When selecting "Monthly" in the Reporting Freq. field, the dimension will only show the current selection for Month and the previous 5 months.

When selecting "Quarterly", the dimension will only show the current selection for Quarter and the previous 3 quarters.

When selecting "Yearly" the dimension will only show the current year and the year before.

I was wondering if this can be acheived by using calculated dimensions and sets to limit the dimensions? Any help will be much appreciated, thanks!

Hi Ying,

How does look your source table, if you Show your example then we can find appropriate solution for your issue

I think you could do it with an expression like:

sum({< $(=only(FrequenzNum)) = {">=$(=max($(=only(FrequenzNum)))- $(=only(FrequenzNumParameter)))"}>} Value)

and a dimension like:

$(=only(FrequenzDim))

whereby FrequenzNum, FrequenzNumParameter and FrequenzDim belong to the same table like your listbox-field Reporting Freq. like this one:

table:

load * inline [

Reporting Freq., FrequenzNum, FrequenzNumParameter, FrequenzDim

Monthly, MonthNum, 5, YearMonth

Quarterly, QuarterNum, 3, Quarter

...

];
