I am New to Qlik and wondering if something the below approach is feasible in QlikSense.
I have a table with period date as a row value , with multiple other dimension. Something like below :
Perioddate
Account
Product
Amount
30/09/18
Account_1
PR_A
100
30/09/18
Account_2
PR_B
200
30/09/18
Account_3
PR_C
150
31/08/18
Account_1
PR_A
110
31/08/18
Account_2
PR_B
210
31/08/18
Account_3
PR_C
160
30//07/18
Account_1
PR_A
120
30//07/18
Account_2
PR_B
220
30//07/18
Account_3
PR_C
170
My requirement is to have 2 dates fields as a filter option (something that can be achieved by a user defined field) . And use those date fields to calculate the change and change percentage
Filters(User Entered)
Date1
30/07/18
Date2
30/09/18
Result Table :
Date1
Date2
Account
Product
Amount
Amount
Change
%change
Account_1
PR_A
100
120
20
20.00%
Account_2
PR_B
200
220

10.00%
Account_3
PR_C
150
170

13.33%
There is only singe date column in my table. This also brings the question if setting the filter as mandatory is possible in Qlik Sense and if we can limit the filter input to a single value.
