In fact, You should not use the Wild card like *<0*. It should be <0 and i am not sure why do you need -1 over the expression. I've removed and applied it's working

(sum(colum1)-sum(column2)-sum(column3))

yes i am using <0 only not *'s

and i need -1 in my expression. i need that in my expression. what is the problem with that -1

it just changes positive to negative. stiill qlikview should filter . don;t ask me to remove -1

anyway thanks

May be straight table recognize the -ve values because of -1. I thought so.

don;t ask me to remove -1

Why Should I, That is your project. I am asking about what is the use of -1 over there

it just changes positive to negative

Is there any requirement to get +ve to -ve values or for formality you have written over there? If so fine. Anyway wait some time may be experts reply to you

yes .  my requirement is to get positive and negative values for that expression.

i don't know why qlikview can't give correct results for basic expression

The reason why you get an 'incorrect' filter is due to the fact that selections are made on dimensional field values, not on the expression values.

If you look at the dimensional values related to negative measure, you'll notice that the line with 4599 shows also dimensional values that appear in any other line with negative measure.

To overcome this, you would need to make your dimensions a primary key.
