Incremental Load

Hi All,

Needed help urgently :

I am implementing incremental load based on Flag 'Full_Load_Flag' (Y/N)

This Flag is in the same table from where data is coming.

So I want to know the Qlikview script for the following:

table1:

load

if (Full_Load_Flag = 'Y',

Load * from xyz;

store table1 into history.qvd

else

load * from xyz where month_key='Sep'

store table1 into current.qvd;

Thanks In advance!

Reagrds,

Gargi

How about this

table1:

LOAD *

From xyz

Where Full_Load_Flag='Y';

If Alt(NoOfRows('table1'), 0) > 0 Then

     STORE table1 into history.qvd;

Else

     table1:

     LOAD *

     From xyz

     Where month_key='Sep';

     STORE table1 into current.qvd;

End If

This will run the second load only if no data was returned from the first.

Hope that helps

Hi Gargi.

I think you can do the following:

table1:
LOAD *
From xyz
Where Full_Load_Flag='Y';
STORE * from table1 into history.qvd;
DROP Table table1;

table1:
LOAD *
From xyz
Where month_key='Sep'
and Full_Load_Flag='N';
STORE * from table1 into current.qvd;

I hope it helps.

Regards.
