Generate "child" column in data model

Hi QlikCommunity


I need help expanding my data model.

I have a data structure like this:

noteID parentID
1  
2 1
2 7
2 4
3 2
3 8
4 1

 

I consists of nodes and "parent" nodes. It is a fairly simple structure that depicts the relationship between nodes. Nodes can have either no, one or multiple parents.

I need a new field that contains the Id of any child nodes. Essentially as this table here:

noteID parentID chidID
1   2
1   4
2 1 3
2 7 3
2 4 3
3 2  
3 8  
4 1 2

This way it is visible which "parents" a node has and a nodes "children". 

Any help is appreciated

//Casper

Have you tried using Hierarchy or HierarchyBelongsTo?
