Problem with duplicate Records

Hi,

I have a question, i have a qvd file contains of some fields.

Let's say the fields are

Col1     Col2     Col3     Col4     Qty

A          A1          A2       A4      0.5

A          A1          A3       A5      0.5

First time i try to load only Col1, Col2, and Qty. I also create the pivot table (Col1 and Col2 as Dimension) and sum(Qty) as Expression.

The total expression show me the value 0.5 (the value must be 0.5+0.5 =1).

Second time i try to load all fields (Col1, Col2, Col3, Col4, Qty). Pivot table with Col1 and Col2 as Dimension and sum(Qty) as Expression. The total show me the value 1 (the correct one).

The problem is, is it possible for me to not load Col3 and Col4  but the total value is still correct (0.5+0.5 = 1) ?

Sorry i cant attach my qlikview file here.

Really appreciate your help. Thanks

Can't replicate that. This load calculates the Sum(Qty) correctly regardless of the number of dimensions.

LOAD Col1

  ,Col2

// ,Col3

// ,Col4

  ,Qty

Inline

[

Col1, Col2, Col3, Col4, Qty

A, A1, A2, A4, 0.5

A, A1, A3, A5, 0.5

];

Possibly you are getting confused seeing the data in table box. Yes, table box shows unique records. Use aggregation sum(Qty) in straight table and see the correct result as in attached sample.

Hi All,

I think i've found the problem. Sorry for the unclear statement.

In the other side I also join with another data using left join.

here is the load script

Tes:

load

  Col1,

  Col2,

  Qty

  Inline [

Col1 Col2 Col3 Col4 Qty

A A1 A2 A4 0.5

A A1 A2 A4 0.5]

(delimiter is '\t');

Left Join(Tes)

LOAD Distinct * INLINE [

    Col1, Name, Name2, Name3

    A, Name_A, Name2_A, A,

    A, Name_A, Name2_A, A

];

I have another data like that structure. And the result give me 0.5

anybody knows why ?

Once again really sorry for the unclear statement.

Thanks

Hi Arjun,

Thanks for response.

But i need to "left join" that table and use Name, Name2, and Name3 as dimension on my pivot table

What is the issue with this? You can use whatever columns you want.

I don't think its the concern of the columns here, what is the exact expression and dimension your using ?
