NULL as a data point in qlikview

Here are the first three rows of my data

Team NameRole Count
A10
B10
NULL11

I want the table box/pie chart to display this data from the table as it is. But the table box/pie chart automatically ignores the value - 'NULL' .So instead of getting the total count as 31 in my chart objects, I just get 20. How can I solve this?

Enable the option Show All Values for the Team Name dimension. A better solution is to replace the nulls with real values in the script. See this document for more information: NULL handling in QlikView

Qlikview interprets NULL in the dataset as '-'. I want it to interpret it as a team named 'NULL'

Hi,

alt function

alt(null(), 0) 

alt(yourfield, 0)

alt(case1[ , case2 , case3 , ...] , else)

The alt function returns the first of the parameters that has a valid number representation. If no such match is found, the last parameter will be returned. Any number of parameters can be used.

In the dimension of your PieChart try this:

If(isnull([Team Name]), 'NULL VALUES', [Team Name])

DO NOT suppress values where value is null

Let me know

You can even check this for null handling.
