repetative values.


Hey data i've imported contains several duplications, I've tried distinct load but to no luck. could you please suggest some course of actions to remove the duplications?

at present it looks something like...

balanceCurrent      |   balanceFuture        |   PostingDate     |        documentDate

433.50                          -230.53                      30/09/2014               30/09/2014

202.97                           -108.24                    1/09/2014                    28/06/2014

202.97                           -108.24                    1/09/2014                    28/06/2014

202.97                           -108.24                    30/09/2014                   30/09/2014

94.73                             0.00                           1/09/2014                 28/06/2014

94.73                             0.00                           1/09/2014                 28/06/2014

94.73                             0.00                           30/09/2014                 30/09/2014

thanks
Bon.

Hey Massimo,

thank you for your reply.

Yes that is something im looking for. I have tried using disctinct in the script but it still showing the same thing. should I declare it as an expression?

Hi,

distinct load seems to work for your sample data:

QlikCommunity_Thread_138888_Pic1.JPG.jpg

LOAD Distinct  * INLINE [

    balanceCurrent, balanceFuture, PostingDate, documentDate

    433.50, -230.53, 30/09/2014, 30/09/2014

    202.97, -108.24, 1/09/2014, 28/06/2014

    202.97, -108.24, 1/09/2014, 28/06/2014

    202.97, -108.24, 30/09/2014, 30/09/2014

    94.73, 0.00, 1/09/2014, 28/06/2014

    94.73, 0.00, 1/09/2014, 28/06/2014

    94.73, 0.00, 30/09/2014, 30/09/2014

];

can you post your app?

regards

Marco

Hey Marco.

thank you for your reply, my datasource is coming from a odbc, not sure if will make any difference as to what you've suggested.

MarcoWedel

there must be some difference in the values if distinct does not work.

I've been trying to look for the differences but cant seem to find it. is there a way to specify that if balanceCurrent, balanceFuture, postingDate and DocumentDate matches remove the row? would that be my best approach?  or would the problem be with my calendar?

APPeriodSummary:

APInvoice:

LOAD distinct

Resident APInvoice;
Let varMinDate = Num(Peek('minDate', 0, 'Temp'));

DROP Table Temp;

AutoGenerate 1 While $(varMinDate) + IterNo() -1 <= $(varMaxDate);    
Load distinct

   Dual(Month, fMonth)                as FMonth// Dual fiscal month
   Dual('Q' & Ceil(fMonth/3), Ceil(fMonth/3)) as FQuarter,

   *;

   Mod(Month-$(vFM), 12)+1            as fMonth// Numeric fiscal month
   Dual('Q' & Ceil(Month/3), Ceil(Month/3)) as Quarter,
  
WeekStart(FYearStart,0,$(vFD))     as StartOfFWeekOne,
   *;
MasterCalendar:

               week(TempDate) As Week,

Drop Table TempCalendar;

thanks.

Hey Massimo, thank you for that.

balanceCurrent & balanceFuture is in the PeriodSummary table, and Posting is in the Invoice table,

should i concatenate them together? or is there a better way around this?
