Master items

Hi all!

Why “help.qlik.com” says the master items are reusable assets? What is the purpose of master items?

Thanks in advance!

Cause you can reuse this item(Dimension,Measure or Visualisation) multiple times.

Example:

if I have field ADDRESS I can create new Dimension:

=left(ADDRESS,3)

I will give it a name: AbbrName

and use that Dimension everywhere in my application.

Does that help?
