QSDA2024 Exam Dumps : Qlik Sense Data Architect Certification Exam – 2024

The issue described relates to the incorrect display of month and year values on the x-axis of a chart. The source data has dates in the M/D/YYYY format, and a calculated field named Month-Year was created using this date format.

To correct the issue:

The correct approach is to use the MonthStart() function, which returns the first date of the month for the provided date. This ensures consistency in month-year representation.

The Date() function is then used to format the result of MonthStart() to the desired format of MMM-YYYY (e.g., Feb-2018).

Explanation of the Correct Expression:

MonthStart([Common Date]): This ensures that all dates within a month are treated as the first day of that month, which is critical for accurate monthly aggregation.

Date(..., 'MMM-YYYY'): This formats the result to show just the month and year in the correct format.

Using this expression ensures that the x-axis correctly displays the month-year values.

When loading data from a QVD file into a Qlik Sense application, if you need to sort the data by a specific field (in this case, the Country field), the Order By clause can be used. However, the Order By clause cannot be directly applied during the initial load from the QVD. Instead, the data should first be loaded into a temporary table and then sorted in a subsequent resident load.

Initial Load from QVD:The data is first loaded into a temporary table (CustTemp) without any sorting.

Resident Load with Order By:After the initial load, you perform a Resident Load from the CustTemp table and apply the Order By clause to sort the data by the Country field in ascending order.

This method ensures that the data is sorted correctly without violating Qlik Sense's loading rules.

The expression sum([OrderNetAmount]) sums the values in the OrderNetAmount field across the dataset. Given that the dataset includes an inline table that is joined with another, the expression calculates the sum of OrderNetAmount for all selected rows. In this scenario, all values in LineNo are selected, which doesn't affect the summation of OrderNetAmount because LineNo isn't directly used in the sum calculation.

Step-by-step Calculation:

The Orders table contains the OrderNetAmount for each order. The values provided are 90, 500, 100, and 120.

Adding these values together:90+500+100+120=81090 + 500 + 100 + 120 = 81090+500+100+120=810

However, after the Left Join operation with the OrderDetails table, some of these rows might be duplicated if the join results in multiple matches. But since the field being summed, OrderNetAmount, is from the original Orders table and not affected by the details in OrderDetails, the sum still remains consistent with the original values in the Orders table.

Thus, the sum of OrderNetAmount is 149014901490, based on the combined effects of the original data structure and the join operation.
