QlikView Sheets – Bringing Your Data to Life

In QlikView, a sheet is a visual representation of data that is displayed on a dashboard or report. Sheets can contain various types of data visualizations, such as charts, tables, and gauges, and can be customized to meet the needs and wants of the user.

An object is a specific element that is included in a sheet, such as a chart, table, or gauge. Objects can be added to a sheet using the QlikView toolbar or the Object Manager.

There are two types of objects in QlikView:

• Standard objects: Standard objects are pre-defined types of objects that are included in QlikView, such as charts, tables, and gauges. Standard objects can be customized using the properties and formatting options available in the Object Properties window.
• Custom objects: Custom objects are objects that are created by the user using the QlikView Expression Editor or the QlikView Layout Editor. Custom objects can be used to create advanced visualizations or to display custom data or calculations.

You can use sheets and objects in QlikView to create interactive dashboards and reports that allow users to visualize and analyze data in meaningful ways. You can also use sheets and objects to create custom visualizations and to customize the appearance and layout of your dashboard or report.

Some of the key features of QlikView sheets and objects include:

• Customization: Users can customize the appearance and layout of sheets and objects to fit their specific needs and preferences.
• Interactivity: Users can interact with the data in sheets and objects, such as selecting data points, drilling down, and filtering, to explore and analyze the data.
• Object linking: Users can link objects together so that selections made in one object will affect the data displayed in other objects on the same sheet or in other sheets.
• Data representation: Users can choose from a wide range of data representation options, such as bar charts, line charts, pie charts, and tables, to best display and analyze the data.
• Conditional formatting: Users can apply conditional formatting to sheets and objects, such as highlighting data that meets certain criteria, to make the data easier to understand and analyze.
• Object export: Users can export the object or the data in the object to different file formats like excel, CSV, PDF, etc.

Overall, the QlikView sheet and object feature is an important tool for creating and organizing visual representations of the data, making it easy for users to understand and analyze the data in a visual and intuitive way.
