In the past we have created an example on how to overcome the challenge of building a date dimension table that also contains reporting periods of 4 weeks instead of only months.

In the attached (quite) simple example we show you how to easily create date dimensions that are derived from you master date dimension. Just follow the comments throughout the application and we hope this makes it easy to create multiple role playing date dimensions for your dimensional model.

 Kind regards,
The QlikConnect team.

PS: The next article will provide an example of Slowly Changing Dimensions in QlikView.

I completely agree that you all have completed the challenge quite well with the date dimension table which reports well for at least for a month..The example helped me a lot to design my own dimension table so effectively and easily..cell phone directory

The concept of Role playing dimensions are used primarily for avoiding the confusion due to the presence of the similar dimensions with different role. hence it is not necessary to have role playing dimension for all the dimensions.wireless home security
