Validation Tab

Hi,

In one of my application I want to any objects to this tab that will help with validating data\spotting any discrepancies.

For example: For some the services, service group has not yet been mapped.

I want to highlights SERVICE values that do not have a corresponding mapping in Service Group Name.

Any suggestions how can I do this!

With regards to mapping-tables I always prefer to work with OTHERSYMBOL-function with a script like the below:

SET OtherSymbol = +;
MainTable: LOAD * FROM .....;
ServiceName: LEFT KEEP (MainTable) LOAD ServiceID, ServiceName FROM ....;
MissingService: LOAD * INLINE [ ServiceID, ServiceName
+, #N/A];


Doing so you may select #N/A (or any other text) in order to show all entries, for which there is not Service-Code mapped.

Hi Peter,

Thanks for your help. I don't know how to implement this but I will try to implement and let you know the outcome if I am able to implement the same.

Hi Peter,

Can you please suggest something which I can do it in the QV side instead of doing it in the script side. Please check with that and let me know.

Think that it is preferable to have this as a real dimension in the script, but you may always use a calculated expression, see the attached file
