How field name change according to selection?

[Anonymous]

Hi

I have fields named as Month 1, Month 2, Month 3, Month 4, Month 5.

Where Month 1 is current month and month 2 till month 5 are next months.

What i want is when i select Dec 2017 from filter pane, my month fields name should change according to selection in chart.

Example data

I select Dec 2017 the month fields name changed from Month 1 to Dec-17, Month 2 to Jan-18, Month 3 to Feb-18 and so on.

And when Jan 2018 is selected from filter then the months fields name should changed as per below snap.

Want this in bar chart

Is this possible? If yes then please help

Thanks

Hi,

You should use set analysis Month between Max(Month) and Max(Month) + 5

Something like this :

Sum({< Month=,
Date= {">=$(=MonthStart(Max(Month))) <=$(=Addmonths(Max(Month),5))"} >} Value)  

Hope this helps

Justin.

I only want that fields name should change according to selection.

Hi,

Why don't you use cross table to convert fields name Month 1, Month 2, Month 3, .... to one Column Month

You can refer Cross Table: Working with crosstables in the data load script ‒ Qlik Sense‌

Thanks,

Justin.

Hi,

Assuming that when no selection or when more than 1 month selected then Month 1 = Current Month

Label for Month 1:

=if(GetSelectedCount(YearMonth)=1,GetFieldSelections(YearMonth),Month(Today())&Num(Year(Today())-2000,'-00'))

Label for Month 2:

=if(GetSelectedCount(YearMonth)=1,Pick(Match(Left(GetFieldSelections(YearMonth),3),'Jan','Feb','Mar','Apr','May','Jun','Jul','Aug','Sep','Oct','Nov','Dec'),'Feb','Mar','Apr','May','Jun','Jul','Aug','Sep','Oct','Nov','Dec','Jan')

&'-'&

If(Match(Left(GetFieldSelections(YearMonth),3),'Dec'),Num(Right(GetFieldSelections(YearMonth),2)+1,'00'),Right(GetFieldSelections(YearMonth),2)),Month(addmonths(Today(),1))&Num(Year(addmonths(Today(),1))-2000,'-00'))

Label for Month 3:

=if(GetSelectedCount(YearMonth)=1,Pick(Match(Left(GetFieldSelections(YearMonth),3),'Jan','Feb','Mar','Apr','May','Jun','Jul','Aug','Sep','Oct','Nov','Dec'),'Mar','Apr','May','Jun','Jul','Aug','Sep','Oct','Nov','Dec','Jan','Feb')&

                                  '-'&If(Match(Left(GetFieldSelections(YearMonth),3),'Nov','Dec'),Num(Right(GetFieldSelections(YearMonth),2)+1,'00'),Right(GetFieldSelections(YearMonth),2))

,Month(addmonths(Today(),2))&Num(Year(addmonths(Today(),2))-2000,'-00'))

Label for Month 4:

=if(GetSelectedCount(YearMonth)=1,Pick(Match(Left(GetFieldSelections(YearMonth),3),'Jan','Feb','Mar','Apr','May','Jun','Jul','Aug','Sep','Oct','Nov','Dec'),'Apr','May','Jun','Jul','Aug','Sep','Oct','Nov','Dec','Jan','Feb','Mar')&

                                  '-'&If(Match(Left(GetFieldSelections(YearMonth),3),'Oct','Nov','Dec'),Num(Right(GetFieldSelections(YearMonth),2)+1,'00'),Right(GetFieldSelections(YearMonth),2))

,Month(addmonths(Today(),3))&Num(Year(addmonths(Today(),3))-2000,'-00'))

Label for Month 5:

=if(GetSelectedCount(YearMonth)=1,Pick(Match(Left(GetFieldSelections(YearMonth),3),'Jan','Feb','Mar','Apr','May','Jun','Jul','Aug','Sep','Oct','Nov','Dec'),'May','Jun','Jul','Aug','Sep','Oct','Nov','Dec','Jan','Feb','Mar','Apr')&

                                  '-'&If(Match(Left(GetFieldSelections(YearMonth),3),'Sep','Oct','Nov','Dec'),Num(Right(GetFieldSelections(YearMonth),2)+1,'00'),Right(GetFieldSelections(YearMonth),2))

,Month(addmonths(Today(),4))&Num(Year(addmonths(Today(),4))-2000,'-00'))

Strange that you can't see the attachment.

Basically one table with Month 1, Month 2, etc.

Another table with the YearMonth you'd like to use to select in format Month-Year

Then in the application, a filter pane with the YearMonth .for Selection

then a Table with Dimension 1 = Month 1 and the label as shown in previous post. Dimension 2 = Month 2 and label as shown in previous post, and so on

I hope this helps,

Cheers,

Luis
