Hi Team,
I want to fetch 24-10-2019 data in my Qlikview file with old Reload time(), if i run report today also i need to get the Reload time as 24-10-2019. Is there any possibility we can change the Reload time to old date.
Ex: If we are fetching the Data in report is for month of SEP which was ran the report on 24-10-2019, in the same way now if run the report for tomorrow i need same data should be displayed for 24-10-2019 with Reload time function.
Please help me on this Issue......
Thank you,
Nivas.
Hello Nivas,
Unfortunately, you cannot reconstruct historical snapshot of data with native Qlik functionality. The ReloadTime function will simply display what's the time of the last reload.
You can however load data Up to a certain date. But there is no guarantee the data you loaded as of 24th of Oct is the same as the date Up to 24th of Oct. Often there are historical changes impacting the numbers.
If this is an issue you expect to face in the future (and the volume of data is not significant), you may want to consider storing your QVDs with a timestamp to avoid them being overwritten during reloads.
Kind regards,
S.T.
Srinivas, just going to toss out something along the lines of where Stoyan was headed with things that I hope may help you pull together a plan that will work for you:

Hopefully this may help a bit further.
