I am new to Qlikview. I created a Heat map with colors based on a performance scale for employees using the Background color property with an IF function. (1) My question is if I have performance standards based on employee categories how would I switch the 'colorizing' according to the category selected? I am expressing my intent below. This might be beyond my ability right now as I just found a function Getfieldselections which would require me to check the count for (1) one selection at a time (Conditional display maybe?). Then choose a color performance set. Because I'm new I'd like the simplest solution for now but would love to see more advanced solutions so I can attempt it later! Thank you in advance!
Pseudo Code:
If [emp selector cat = 1] then
Background color: if score>.90 green, >=80 yellow.....
else [emp selector cat = 2]
Background color: if score >.92 green >=84 yellow....
What exactly do you mean when you say Heat Map? An actual map or color coded chart which varies based on certain values? If it is the later, then you can create that kind of heat map. First can also be created, but might need an extension for it.
Thank you Sunny but this would assume only one option is selected. Can I set up a selector(list box) for a mutually exclusive option? If not then the precondition for this IF would be to check for only one selection.
A user could potentially click on both categories in a selector. It would be confusing to see two sets of employee with different criteria on a heat map together. I could make the chart disappear with an error message telling users to select only one category. Do you know of Qlikview alternatives similar to Option buttons?
FYI I didn't realize there was a Getselectedcount when I wrote the first message.
