Qlikview doesn't know a stack bar. There are bar charts and those can have two styles: grouped or stacked.

Example:

Say you have a chart that shows revenue per month:

Grouped Bar Chart = 12 bars, one per month.

Stacked Bar Chart = One bar for a cumulative figure.

Hi Manoj,

If U specify 2 or more expressions against a dimension in a bar chart, then u can display it using a stacked bar chart. Example: If ur dimension is City and u specify 2 expressions as 'Target turnover' and 'Actual turn over' then u can represent it using a stacked bar chart as shown in following fig.

Checkout the Data Visualization QlikView demo application, it highlights different charts and gives general guidance on when to use them.
