This script functions returns an integer for the number of the currently read row of the current table. The first record is number 1.
Syntax:
RecNo( )
In contrast to RowNo( ), which counts rows in the resulting Qlik Sense table, RecNo( ), counts the records in the raw data table and is reset when a raw data table is concatenated to another.
Example: Data load script
Raw data table load:
Tab1:
LOAD * INLINE
[A, B
1, aa
2,cc
3,ee];
Tab2:
LOAD * INLINE
[C, D
5, xx
4,yy
6,zz];
Loading record and row numbers for selected rows:
QTab:
LOAD *,
RecNo( ),
RowNo( )
resident Tab1 where A<>2;
LOAD
C as A,
D as B,
RecNo( ),
RowNo( )
resident Tab2 where A<>5;
//We don't need the source tables anymore, so we drop them
Drop tables Tab1, Tab2;
The resulting Qlik Sense internal table:
| A | B | RecNo( ) | RowNo( ) |
|---|---|---|---|
|
