In this chapter, we will focus on the concept of Set Analysis and its use in Qlik Sense. We will cover the following topics:

  • Cracking the syntax for Set Analysis
  • Using flags in Set Analysis
  • Using the = sign with variables in Set Analysis
  • Point in time using Set Analysis
  • Using comparison sets in Set Analysis
  • Using embedded functions in Set Analysis
  • Creating a multi-measure expression in Set Analysis
  • Using search strings inside a set modifier
  • Capturing a list of field values using a concat() function in Set Analysis
  • Using the element functions P() and E() in Set Analysis
