Hi,

Please help on the below request.

Table Name is Module

Column Name is ZONE

Data in the Zone is :

FRONT

BACK

NO DATA

POST

I am able to sort in Ascending or Descending order.

I want the sorting as given below.

FRONT

BACK

POST

NO DATA

Thanks a lot

Hi Lakshman,

This is a good little tip for doing this:

Create a temporary table

TempTableToSetLoadOrder:

LOAD * INLINE [

    ZONE

    FRONT

    BACK

    POST

    NO DATA

];

This sets the load order the way you want it.

At the end of the load script

DROP TABLE TempTableToSetLoadOrder;

The table might be dropped but QlikView has already set the load order of the field values.

In your charts set the sort order of the field ZONE to Load Order.

Hi,

     An other way to do it without changing the script is to set the sort order to the expression:

Match(ZONE, 'FRONT', 'BACK', 'POST, 'NO DATA')

Cheers

Hi,

you can and ordering field on load.

Something like

IF(Field = 'FRONT', 1,

    IF(Field = 'BACK', 2,

          IF(Field = 'POST',3

              IF(Field = 'NO DATA',4)

              )

          )

    ) As OrderNo,

Mark

Hi Lakshmana,

Go to property and select sort tab.

Write the below in expression tab.

=Match(ZONE ,''FRONT' , 'BACK' , 'POST', 'NO DATA' )

[NareshGuntur]

Load * Inline [

ZONE, SORT

FRONT, 1

BACK, 2

POST, 3

NO DATA, 4

];

And under sorting in the front end, use the field "Sort" in Ascending order.

Cheers,

Naresh
