Sorting problem in Straight Table

Hi Community!

My client wants to have a Pareto (80/20) analysis in its application, marking with different background color the clients that make up 80% of its sales.

WhenI use Full Accumulation functionality with Visual Cues, I am not able to get the right result since I cannot mark the last client if it sums up more than 80% (example "Rank - Native QlickView Functions" attached) but the sorting in the application works fine.

I do have a problem when I deploy the application in the server because when I open it in the browser, it always sorts by Client Alphabetically.

On the other hand, when I calculate the Full Accumulation function "manually" using the Above function, I can mark the clients correctly but the sort does not work at all, not even in my laptop using a local version.

I found this post in this community:

http://community.qlik.com/message/315558#315558

That states that "Sorting of expression columns is disabled if you use rowno() or other inter-chart functions anywhere in the chart.". So my question is how can I fullfill customer requirement?

I attach a .qvw with both examples.

Any help is really appreciated!

Thanks in advance,

Rui Correia

Hi Rui,

Sort by Expression may do this job. Let try it by Righ click on chart -> Properties -> Sort tab -> Select Client -> Check only Expression and leave other blank -> Use Rank(Sales) in expression box.

See sample attached file.
