Summary

We have just started creating and building analytical applications with QlikView. Although the data model we used was simple to build, we covered the basic concepts a developer should consider when designing it.

The main objective of this chapter was to show you the basics of QlikView development from the design perspective, to create basic objects, and to change different properties to make them more functional.

This chapter helped you learn how to load source tables from QVDs, to associate different source tables to create a data model, and to identify dimensions and expressions in the context of a QlikView document.

It also showed you how to create a user interface with user controls to filter data and make selections. Finally, we learned how to create charts and tables that have a high degree of interactivity.

In the next chapter we will learn how we can load data from different data sources.
