i have a column which has filed 'Amount' as followes:
Amount
When is use sum function sum(Amount) it gives value 0
Can anyone one explain how to resolve this problem
I would hazard a guess that Qlikview thinks the values are TEXT due to the ' being used as a separator, remove the character in the load script and add it again using the number formatting.

KeepChar(Amount,'0123456789') as Amount
now use sum(Amount)
Hi,
The blow link may helps you
Remove characters before a special character
you can also try this if you have other special characters in your field data.
SubField(SubField(SubField(SubField(SubField(Amount,'/'),'.'),'&'),'('),')') as Amount;
Convert your Amount value from Text to number.
if it is solves your problem please mark it as correct answer.
just replace the sepecial thousand separator with nothig
num(replace (Amount,chr(39),'')) as Amount
try this
LOAD * ,SubField(SubField(SubField(SubField(SubField(Amount,'/'),'.'),'&'),'('),')') as TEST_AMOUNT INLINE [
80'899.15
37'787.46
13'895.00
33'924.67
1'799.23
3'598.46
501'242.88
1'503'728.66
];
PurgeChar(Amount,Chr(39)) as Amount
