Hi Paul,

Concatenate both Inquiry and Quotation tables and include a flag in the table to differentiate the record type, check this below script

Data:

LOAD

     *,

     'Quotation' as TableName

FROM QuotationData;

Concatenate(Data)

LOAD

     *,

     'Inquiry' as TableName,

     Inq.Date_Inquiry to Q.Date

FROM Inquiry;

Now there is a single date field connecting to Master calendar.

Hi Jagan

Since the Quotation date and Inquiry date both of them are different date. for example same Ref.No can have 2 seperate date. So am i still able to make both the date same ? i guess it will be wrong right ?

Hi Paul,

if your three fields are as cal_date,

inquiry_date and quotation _date,

when u load data, you can add two aliases as well:

inquiry tbl:

load inquiry_date,

inquiry_date as cal_date;

quotation_tbl:

load quotation_date,

quotation_date as cal_date;

Hi Paul,

Create a Link Table with Inquiry and Quotation tables and then link the Master Calender with that Link Table.

By this way you can reach your goal.

Hi Sir,

I must have miss out some thing ,  as i try below , but it still not work :-

load * from Inquiry.qvd (qvd);

Inquiry:

load Date,

Date as cal_date;

Inquiry:

load Inq.Qty_Inq,

Inq.Qty_Inq as Qty;

Not applicable
Author

try writing it together,

Inquiry:

load *,Date,Date as cal_date,Inq.Qty Inq,Inq.Qty_Ing as Qty from Inquiry.qvd (qvd);

Also, please rename cal_date to the correct name .... as you have named it in the master calendar.
