How to do an order counter id

Hi guys

I have a table with the CUSTACCOUNT, SALESID and CREATEDDATETIME. In the master table obviously I have several CUTACCOUNT and SALESID, but I would like to "numerate" the orders, in order to know Frequency, etc etc. as in the following table

Many many thanks

Eduard

Slight change in the script:

Table:

LOAD CUSTACCOUNT,

    SALESID,

    CREATEDDATETIME

FROM

[https://community.qlik.com/thread/186667]

(html, codepage is 1252, embedded labels, table is @2);

FinalTable:

LOAD *,

  RowNo() as [Order Number]

Resident Table

Order By CUSTACCOUNT, CREATEDDATETIME;

DROP Table Table;

Output in Table Box:

May be something like this:

LOAD CUSTACCOUNT,

          SALESID,

          CREATEDDATETIME,

          RowNo() as [Order Number]

FROM Source

You may use RowNo() as OrderNumber.

E.g LOAD RowNo() as OrderNumber,

      CUSTACCOUNT,

      SALESID,

      CREATEDATETIME

Try this:

Table:

LOAD CUSTACCOUNT,

    SALESID,

    CREATEDDATETIME

FROM

[https://community.qlik.com/thread/186667]

(html, codepage is 1252, embedded labels, table is @2);

FinalTable:

LOAD *,

  RowNo() as [Order Number]

Resident Table

Order By CUSTACCOUNT, SALESID;

DROP Table Table;

A different one:

you can use (in a chart) a count of a not null field in the same table to know the number of rows.

Hi Sunny,

Where are going by the good track, but I want to know the counter per customer. For example in your table, when it changes from custaccount  C00002 to C00003 the counter has to be reseted....I want to know the order number by customer

Many many thanks guys!!

May be this:

    SALESID,

    CREATEDDATETIME

Resident Table

Order By CUSTACCOUNT, CREATEDDATETIME;

DROP Table Table;
