I'm trying to use a count function in qlikview to count the number of "Past Due" projects. The past due projects are indicated by a 1 in my table. This is what I have which is not working. Count({} Past Due}Can anyone help?
You probably want count({<[Past Due]={1}>}distinct ProjectID) or similar depending on what your unique ID is for a project. That filters to the data associated with [Past Due] being 1 and then counts the distinct ProjectIDs.

I have a Crystal Report with all my records grouped by customer. I also have an SQL command that checks whether the customer has had services, if so then 1 else 0.
When I place this into my report in the group header/footer then as expected I get a 1 or 0 depending on whether the customer has had a service in the time frame or not. All good so far..
Now the problem is here, I need to count the number of groups that have a 1 and place this total in the report header. Whenever I use a sum or a count though I get really high numbers, because even though its showing a 1 or 0, it's instead counting the number of details in the group.
Any thoughts on how to best approach this?
Create a Running total to SUM that formula.
Set the evaluation to once for each group change.
Am trying to rank groups by summing a field (not a calculated column) for each group so I get a static answer for each row in my table.
For example, I may have a table with state, agent, and sales. Sales is a field, not a measure. There can be many agents within a state, so there are many rows for each individual state. I am trying to rank the states by total sales within each state.
I have tried many things, but the ones that make the most sense to me are:
rankx(CALCULATETABLE(Table,allexcept(Table,Table[AGENT]),sum([Sales]),,DESC)
and
=rankx(SUMMARIZE(State,Table[State],"Sales",sum(Table[Sales])),[Sales])
The first one is creating a table where it sums sales without grouping by Agent. and then tries to rank based on that. I get #ERROR on this one.
The second one creates a table using SUMMARIZE with only sum of Sales grouped by state, then tries to take that table and rank the states based on Sales. For this one I get a rank of 1 for every row.
I think, but am not sure, that my problem is coming from the sales being a static field and not a calculated measure. I can't figure out where to go from here. Any help?
Assuming your data looks something like this...
...have you tried this:
Ranking Measure = RANKX(ALL('Table'[STATE]),CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Sales])))
The ALL('Table'[STATE]) says to rank all states. The CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Sales])) says to rank by the sum of their sales. The CALCULATE wrapper is important; a plain SUM('Table'[Sales]) will be filtered to the current row context, resulting in every state being ranked #1. (Alternatively, you can spin off SUM('Table'[Sales]) into a separate Sales measure - which I'd recommend.)
Note: the ranks will change based on slicers/filters (e.g. a filter by agent will re-rank the states by that agent). If you're looking for a static rank of states by their total sales (i.e. not affected by filters on agent and always looking at the entire table), then try this:
Static Ranking Measure = CALCULATE([Ranking Measure], ALLEXCEPT('Table', 'Table'[State]))
This takes the same ranking measure, but removes all filters except the state filter (which you need to leave, as that's the column you're ranking by).
I did figure out a solution that's pretty simple, but it's messier than I'd like. If it's the only thing that works though, that's okay.
I created a new table with each distinct state along with a sum of sales then just do a basic RANKX on that table.
I have made a simplified example to illustrate the question i'm trying to ask here. In my example i have sales orders and each sales order has multiple lines, i group by Sales Order Number, then by Sales Order Line (row groups)
I have found Group Filters very useful/flexible in filtering report data in specific areas of a table, so in my example i filter the SOLine group to exclude the SO line if it equals 3.
Then, i want to have a group aggregate for the entire SO, to tell me a count of the SO lines within it. Unfortunately when doing COUNT() expression from a textbox within the Sales Order Number group scope it counts all the lines, including the SO Line 3, whereas i want it to take into consideration the line filtered out from its child group.
Below is a screenshot of my tablix and grouping:
On the SOLine group i have the following filter:
And below is the output i get when previewing the report:
I want that count to evaluate to 4, but i ideally want to keep using groups as i've found they are much more efficient than using SUM(IIF) which completely slowed down my actual report which has thousands of rows.
If this is not possible, please give all best alternatives i could use.
Many thanks.

Using SSRS 2010
I have Two groups YearMonth and Insured. I need to display only 50 records per page based on a group "Insured". So I have created parent group "GroupPageBreakOnly" and used this expression =CEILING(RowNumber(Nothing)/50).
I ensured that the Page Break at end is checked so that individual groups appear in individual page.
As a result the first page displays 31 rows, the second one 50 rows, and the third one 9 rows.
I tried to specify data region "Insured"
=CEILING(RowNumber("Insured")/50),
but it gives me an error:
...the value of the scope parameter of RowNumber must equal the name of the group directly containing the current group.
What am I missing here?
Unless you need this report to do other things, I would apply the grouping and aggregation in the Dataset itself which is generally a lot more efficient anyway.
Have you tried using ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY YearMonth, Insured ORDER BY YearMonth, Insured) to give the number of rows, perhaps even throwing in a % 50 at the end to see which group of 50 it fell into?
This can then be grouped on in your report.
I have been recently working with GOOD-DATA platform. I don't have that much experience in MAQL, but I am working on it. I did some metric and reports in GOOD-DATA platform. Recently I tried to create a metric for calculating Total Buyers,First Time Buyers and Repeating Buyers. I created these three reports and working perfect.But when i try to add a order date parent filter the first time buyers and repeating buyers value getting wrong. please have Look at Following queries.
I can find out the correct values using sql queries.
MAQL Queries:
TOTAL ORDERS-
SELECT COUNT(NexternalOrderNo) BY CustomerNo WITHOUT PF
TOTAL FIRSTTIMEBUYERS-
SELECT COUNT(CustomerNo) WHERE (TOTAL ORDER WO PF=1) WITHOUT PF
TOTAL REPEATINGBUYERS-
SELECT COUNT(CustomerNo) WHERE (TOTAL ORDER WO PF>1) WITHOUT PF
Can any one suggest a logic for finding these values using MAQL
It's not clear what you want to do. If you could provide more details about the report you need to get, it would be great.
It's not necessary to put "without pf" into the metrics. This clause bans filter application, so when you remove it, the parent filter will be used there. And you will probably get what you want. Specifically, modify this:
SELECT COUNT(CustomerNo) WHERE (TOTAL ORDER WO PF>1) WITHOUT PF
to:
SELECT COUNT(CustomerNo) WHERE (TOTAL ORDER WO PF>1)
The only thing you miss here is "ALL IN ALL OTHER DIMENSIONS" aka "ALL OTHER".
This keyword locks and overrides all attributes in all other dimensions—keeping them from having any affect on the metric. You can read about it more in MAQL Reference Guide.
FIRSTTIMEBUYERS:
SELECT COUNT(CustomerNo)
WHERE (SELECT IFNULL(COUNT(NexternalOrderNo), 0) BY Customer ID, ALL OTHER) = 1
REPEATINGBUYERS:
SELECT COUNT(CustomerNo)
WHERE (SELECT IFNULL(COUNT(NexternalOrderNo), 0) BY Customer ID, ALL OTHER) > 1
