What If Analysis In Qlikview using

Slider object.

Introduction:
‘What if analysis ‘ is a technique that lets you assess changes before they happen. It greatly helps
the business to predict their outcome of their decisions, lowering the risk. It also helps to quickly
test a wide variety of scenarios using real-time data pulled straight from the database.

Let’s see how this can be achieved in qlikview with an example.

Explanation:
Loading sample data into the Qlikview and created a straight table with product as dimensions and
other field as expressions as shown in the figure.

Declare a variable for sliders to increase or decrease the profit margin to find the corresponding
Selling Price of the Product.
Create a slider with the settings shown in the screenshot below.

Now, add the following expression in the straight table.

What should be the Selling Price if the Profit Margin changes?


round(100*(Selling_Price)/(100-vProfitMargin))

Changing the slider for different values will show corresponding selling price for the same.
