Is QlikView capable of consuming multiple data formats? Can it perform against multiple environments? In many cases we combine data from multiple sources to create a single report – can this be duplicated? How is this done?
Thanks for the help.
Yes.
The most common is the format of the date. In QlikView, you just use the same format for all data sources. For example, source 1 has Date as MMDDYYYY - you read it date(date#(Date,'MMDDYYYY')).
Source two has format YYYY.MM.DD - read it as date(date#(Date,'YYYY.MM.DD')).
In both cases, you'll get Date in format defined by
SET DateFormat=...;
in the beginning of the script.

Hello,
If you mean data blending from multiple sources, it's one of QlikView's strongest points due to its scripting abilities.
What's your real-life scenario?
