Qlikview Dimension Calculate

Hi !
  I would like to know if it is posible to calculate a dimension like this:
I have a table with only this

Country_Sells:

LOAD * INLINE [

    Country, Import

    Espain, 1000

    France, 2000

    Argentina, 500

   

];

I can create this graph !

But I would like to create a a new value for country . I would like to create "UE" , this will be the sum of ESPAIN + FRANCE.

Is there any chance I can do this???

Thank you very much!!!!

Hi Rodrigo

yes, 2 solutions :

you can add a field in your script like if (Country ="Spain" or Country="France", "EU", otherValue) as MetaCountry

or use the same formula as Calculated Dimension in the chzart

Hi juju,

Thanks for your response !
The problems is  that i still want to see spain, france  but I will like to add UE en a column

Something like this

As I undestand your solutions, I would only see UE and Argentina with the MetaCountry Dimension. Did I undestood wrong?

Thanks a lot for your help!

PD: the value for EU is 3000. The sum of  France (2000) and Espain (1000). I wrote 1500, but is wrong !!!!

If you really want that type of display in your chart I think you need to introduce another table that duplicates up your countries;

Country_Map:

LOAD * INLINE [

    Country, Country_Region

    Espain, Espain

    France, France

    Argentina, Argentina

     Espain, EU

    France, EU

];

No you will see both

you keep your field country (FR, SP, ARG...) and you have a above hierarchical field like Region with EU, ARG

Hi JUJU !!
I understand your idea but I need  all toghether like this:

Country:
Argentina   500

          men 400

          women  100
Spain        1000

          women 500

         men 500

France      2000

         men 1000

         women 1000

Eu             3000

     women 2000

The problem I am having is when I contract the dimension.. The sum Is not the same.
