convert SQL data compare logic to QlikView: Compare Yesterday's data to Today's data and display only changed values

Hi Community,

I am trying to build a simple QV app just to show what changed from previous day's data to today's data. 

Data source is oracle and currently planning to take 2 days data initially in two separate QVDs and then a new QVD everyday/reload thereafter. (I appreciate any suggestions here.) 

The real data has around 30-35 columns in total.

Data looks like below:

1st day data:

KeyDateCol1Col2Col3
115/7/2021APW
215/7/2021BQX
315/7/2021CRY
415/7/2021DSZ

 

2nd day data:

KeyDateCol1Col2Col3
116/7/2021AAPWW
216/7/2021BQQX
316/7/2021CRYY
416/7/2021DSZ
516/7/2021ETZZ

 

Expected Output:

First Output table:

Display only New Rows that do not exist in Previous Day

KeyCol1Col2Col3
5ETZZ

 

Second Output Table:

Show only what changed from yesterday to today and transpose to row level.  This is a kind of Delta/ Changelog table.

KeyFieldnameOldValueNewValue
1Col1AAA
1Col3WWW
2Col2QQQ
3Col3YYY

 

I have a logic and solution is currently implemented in SQL. But  this should be in QlikView on a daily basis.

I appreciate any leads/suggestions.

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

For displaying the first output table-

[1st day data]:

LOAD Key,
Date,
Col1,
Col2,
Col3
FROM Day1_Table;

NoConcatenate

[2nd day data]:

LOAD Key,
Date,
Col1,
Col2,
Col3
FROM Day2_Table where not exists(Key);

Drop Table [1st day data];
