With resident load you can load from a table that is already in memory ("already residing in memory"). So use a table that you loaded / created earlier in the run of the current script as a source table.

May you live in interesting times!

Hi,

Please check below example where Resident Load is used with sample data

Customer:

Name, OrderDate

A, 1/1/2015

A, 1/1/2014

B, 1/2/2015

B, 1/3/2015

If you want to find the first order of the customer then we can use resident like below

Customer:

LOAD

*

FROM CustomerDataSource;

CustomerFirstOrder

LOAD

     Name,

     Min(OrderDate) AS First Order

Resident Customer;  // Using resident because we already loaded the Customer data in previous Load/SQL statement.

This is one of the scenario for Resident Load, hope this helps you.

Regards,

Jagan.

Hi ,

Resident Load:

  • Loading data from already loaded Qlikview table is possible using Resident Load.
  • Transformations and  Calculations can be performed in the resident load script.
  • Loading a existing field or a succeeding table is possible too.

For Example:


Employees:

Select Empname,

HireDate,

Salary,

Incentives

From Employee;

Load Empname,

Month(HireDate),

Salary + Incentives as ‘GrossSalary’

Resident Employees;



HTH,

Resident Load : Loading data from already loaded Qlikview table which is present in Memory. Transformation & calculations can be done using resident load & will be much faster with small set of data compare to physical load.

Dear Chethan,

Resident is used if data should be loaded from a previously loaded table.

Example:

--

TempTable:

Select A,B,C,D from transtable;

NoConcatenate

ResidentTable:

Load A,B,month(C),A*B+D as E resident TempTable Order By A asc;

Kind regards,
