Blog posts from our network of speakers

One of the great strengths of Qlik is its simplicity and accessibility, and there is a lot of valuable material publicly available designed to get you up and running with the program. What is a lot harder to find is targeted tuition tailored for the intermediate and advanced level. Much of the support provided for more specialized problem solving comes from knowledge shared throughout the informal ‘Qlik community’ of online forums and blogs, and many users do not realize the vast potential of the platform.

    Here’s a fun Friday post.

Due to a bug in QVD generation I couldn’t implement the idea at the time. But the bug is long since […]

  • Creating Time Groups in Your Data Model August 14, 2023
    I frequently create Date groups in my Qlik apps to facilitate selections like “Yesterday” or “Last Week”. Some years ago I published a pattern for creating Date groups in the Recipes section of QlikCookbook.com and it’s been a very popular download. I’ve responded to a few requests on Qlik Community looking to do the same […]

  • Q-Tip #24 – The ONLY Solution, or the Subtle Difference Between Simple and Advanced Search in Set Analysis October 26, 2022
    Like many of my discoveries, this article was inspired by a Qlik Community conversation that followed an old, but still brilliant blog post by Henric Cronström, which describes the “Expression Search”. In one of the comments, a curious guy named Daniel asked a question, which led all of us to this interesting realization. First, let’s […]
