Alternate dimension in Pivot

Hi,

In charts we can have alternate dimensions and change the dimension with a dropdown.

How to achieve the same in QlikSense?

A few suggest to use qsVariable.

If it the only way please share the steps.

Regards,

Arun

What I would suggest, let's assume you have 3 dimensions you want to work with, and depends on the selection; you'll have the dimension shown in your pivot table.

In that case do as follow:

1) in the script, add an inline table:

load * inline [

DimID, Dim

1, dim1

2, dim2

3, dim3

];

2) Now, add the new Dim field as a List Selection in your sheet

3) In your pivot table, as dimension (line or column , depends in what you want):

Pick(DimID, yourDimension1,yourDimension2,yourDimension3)

Per analogy :

my dimension :

=Pick(DimID, [Type Article Judy],[Client Judy],[Article Judy])

result (name dim1 dim2 and dim3 like your real dimensions to make it clear)
