Variable

[mnvrma]

T1:

LOAD * INLINE [

CDate

01/31/2015

02/29/2015

03/31/2015

];

I want to get the Variable of Max of Date from 'Table T1' and want to use that variable in the 'Where Condition' in 'Table T2'. So that I can get a Date that is greater than the variable date in 'Table T2'.

T2:

LOAD * INLINE [

CDate

01/31/2015

02/29/2015

03/31/2015

04/30/2015

05/31/2015

01/31/2015

];

You are going to need a NoConcatenate statement before your T2 load to have a separate table.  If you load a table with the same columns as another table, Qlik will automatically concatenate the two tables into one.

The following load scripts set a variable, vMaxCDate with the max CDate value of T1 and loads a table T2 with only CDates greater than that variable.  Since the 2 tables will be associated because they both contain CDate, you may wanted to rename CDate in T2 to view the difference.  I am assuming there are other process you will completing in the load script.

T1:
LOAD * INLINE [
CDate
01/31/2015
02/29/2015
03/31/2015
];

temp_maxCDate:
LOAD max(CDate) as maxCDate
resident T1;

let vMaxCDate = Peek('maxCDate',0,'temp_maxCDate');

DROP TABLE temp_maxCDate;

NoConcatenate
T2_Temp:
LOAD * INLINE [
CDate
01/31/2015
02/29/2015
03/31/2015
04/30/2015
05/31/2015
01/31/2015
];

NoConcatenate
T2:
Load CDate
Resident T2_Temp
where CDate > '$(vMaxCDate)';

Drop table T2_Temp;
