build snowflake schema in QlikView

hi

i want to develop QlikView solution for wholesale and retail company

the company have two departments the first sells medical products wholesale to pharmacies (use sql database for accounting and stock )

the second department are group retail pharmacies sell drugs to patients (use sql database for the accounting data and foxpro for the stock data )


i want to build snowflake schema to the business process in the company (the wholesale  and retail  departments )

the problem is that the requirements for the first dep different from the another ( they have the same business process )


how can i build the model to the top manager if i cant build DW in qlikview (i wont to build a data model for each department ) ?

I suggest you start by searching around this forum for "data modelling" and other similar terms.  You are asking a very specific question that is difficult to answer without knowing your data and processes.

Retreive the data from the data bases and save the result sets to QVD files.

Then develop a QVW that will load the QVD files and match the keys by using the same names.

That's it.
