bar line chart problem

[#1]

Hello,

I'm trying to create a graph that will show sales for each week for the past 3 weeks + current week.

Basically this needs to looks like this:

I tried two approaches to do this graph.

I created a bar chart with selected 'values on data points' and I made bars invisible. I can't seem to find a way to connect those data points. If I would be able to connect the data points then this graph would be finished.

Then I made a line chart, and for this I played around with calculated dimension with no luck as I'm not very good at qlikview syntax.

Can somebody help/guide me to solve this? Thanks

I took a look at your sample and I think you are overcomplicating it, but maybe I am missing something. Do you want the past 4 weekends to be based on a selection or the max weekend in your data set? I assumed you wanted it based on the max (selection based is a bit different, but possible).

I got rid of your calculated dimension and expression. I set Weekday as the dimension and for the expression, used:

sum({<Weekend={'>=$(=Max({1}Weekend, 4))'}>}Amount)

That will respect selections, but will only display the four most recent Weekday values. I've attached a sample.

Hello,

Thanks for your feedback.

I want the past 4 weekends to be based on selection.

Thanks

Well, that makes it a little more difficult. First, you're going to have to determine what to do if multiple months are selected or if no months are selected. You can force a month to be selected by checking the Always One Selected Value on the List Box. For multiple selections, there are multiple options. You can use the max selected or use a macro to change the selection. I posted an example of using a macro to change multiple selections to one on the forum a while back.

Once you have one selected value in the field, you can use:

sum(
{<Weekend={'>=$(=Date(GetFieldSelections(Weekend) - 28))
<=$(=Date(GetFieldSelections(Weekend)+1))'}>}
Amount)

I've attached a sample.
