In our last session, we discussed\u00a0QlikView Trellis<\/a><\/strong>. Now its time to explore QlikView Time Chart Wizard. Moreover, we will learn how to create time charts using qlikView time chart wizard.<\/p>\n

The Tools menu in the menu bar provides several chart wizards which are very easy and convenient to use. The wizards also instruct the user as to what to do in a certain step in the process of creating a chart.<\/p>\n

So, let’s start the QlikView Time Chart Wizard Tutorial.<\/p>\n

What is Time Chart Wizard in QlikView?<\/h3>\n

QlikView Time Chart Wizard is used to compare a set of data over a certain period. There are options available for time periods like year wise, month wise, quarter-wise (four months), week wise, lunar week wise and day wise. The wizard guides the user step by step in making the time chart in QlikView. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

You can get enough information on every option provided in a wizard step. The time chart will have five fields, namely, dimension (selected by you), a period field for comparison, another period field for comparison, change the field and change% field.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Do you know How to Create\u00a0QlikView Bar, Pie Chart & Text Box?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

This gives a complete analytical record for change occurring in the data over a period. You can see, the change value that prefix by a plus or minus sign indicates an increase or decrease in the data values in that interval of time. The change percentage shows the difference in two data values as a percentage (indicated by \u2013 or +). <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This is very useful when you are comparing data values related to sales. The change and change percent will show the profit (+) or loss (-) in sales over time. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

How to Create a Time Charts Using QlikView Time Chart Wizard?<\/h3>\n

In this section, we will create a time chart using the time chart wizard in QlikView. We are using sample data which has three fields; Date, Sales and Products. The dates start from 1<\/span><\/span>st<\/span><\/span><\/sup> of January 2017 and extend to 20<\/span><\/span>th<\/span><\/span><\/sup> of September 2018. The sales field shows the sales done each day and Product field has the product number (1,2,3,4) of the product that has been sold. A piece of the whole data set is shown in the image below. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
