When do we use QlikView?
With that in mind, when would you want to use QlikView? You would use it when you wish to analyze and quickly see trends and exceptions that—with normal financial application-oriented BI products—would not be readily apparent without days of setting up by consultants and technology departments. With QlikView, you can also analyze data relationships that are not measured in monetary units. Certainly, QlikView can be used to analyze sales trends and stock performance, but other relationships soon become apparent when using QlikView.
This chapter will take you through getting financial ledger data into QlikView and analyzing the out of balance.
