- qNumFormatobject
Sets the formatting of a field. The properties of qFieldAttributes and the formatting mechanism are described below.
Formatting mechanism
The formatting mechanism depends on the type set in qType, as shown below:
In case of inconsistencies between the type and the format pattern, the format pattern takes precedence over the type.Type is DATE, TIME, TIMESTAMP or INTERVAL
The following applies:
- If a format pattern is defined in qFmt , the formatting is as defined in qFmt .
- If qFmt is empty, the formatting is defined by the number interpretation variables included at the top of the script ( TimeFormat , DateFormat , TimeStampFormat ).
- The properties qDec , qThou , qnDec , qUseThou are not used.
Type is INTEGER
The following applies:
- If a format pattern is defined in qFmt , the engine looks at the values set in qDec and qThou . If these properties are not defined, the formatting mechanism uses the number interpretation variables included at the top of the script ( DecimalSep and ThousandSep ).
- If no format pattern is defined in qFmt , no formatting is applied. The properties qDec , qThou , qnDec , qUseThou and the number interpretation variables defined in the script are not used .
Type is REAL
The following applies:
- If a format pattern is defined in qFmt , the engine looks at the values set in qDec and qThou . If these properties are not defined, the engine uses the number interpretation variables included at the top of the script ( DecimalSep and ThousandSep ).
- If no format pattern is defined in qFmt , and if the value is almost an integer value (for example, 14,000012), the value is formatted as an integer. The properties qDec , qThou , qnDec , qUseThou are not used.
- If no format pattern is defined in qFmt , and if qnDec is defined and not 0, the property qDec is used. If qDec is not defined, the variable DecimalSep defined at the top of the script is used.
- If no format pattern is defined in qFmt , and if qnDec is 0, the number of decimals is 14 and the property qDec is used. If qDec is not defined, the variable DecimalSep defined at the top of the script is used.
Type is FIX
The following applies:
- If a format pattern is defined in qFmt , the engine looks at the values set in qDec and qThou . If these properties are not defined, the engine uses the number interpretation variables included at the top of the script ( DecimalSep and ThousandSep ).
- If no format pattern is defined in qFmt , the properties qDec and qnDec are used. If qDec is not defined, the variable DecimalSep defined at the top of the script is used.
Type is MONEY
The following applies:
- If a format pattern is defined in qFmt , the engine looks at the values set in qDec and qThou . If these properties are not defined, the engine uses the number interpretation variables included at the top of any script ( MoneyDecimalSep and MoneyThousandSep ).
- If no format pattern is defined in qFmt , the engine uses the number interpretation variables included at the top of the script ( MoneyDecimalSep and MoneyThousandSep ).
Type is ASCII
No formatting, qFmt is ignored.
qNumFormat properties
- qTypestring
Can be one of: "U""A""I""R""F""M""D""T""TS""IV"
- qnDecinteger
Number of decimals. Default is 10.
- qUseThouinteger
Defines whether or not a thousands separator must be used. Default is 0.

Creates a transient variable.
Definition
A variable in Qlik Sense is a named entity, containing a data value. This value can be static or be the result of a calculation. A variable acquires its value at the same time that the variable is created or after when updating the properties of the variable. Variables can be used in bookmarks and can contain numeric or alphanumeric data. Any change made to the variable is applied everywhere the variable is used. When a variable is used in an expression, it is substituted by its value or the variable's definition.
Example
The variable x contains the text string Sum(Sales) . In a chart, you define the expression $(x)/12 . The effect is exactly the same as having the chart expression Sum(Sales)/12 . However, if you change the value of the variable x to Sum(Budget) , the data in the chart are immediately recalculated with the expression interpreted as Sum(Budget)/12 .

qFieldProfiling properties
- qNamestring
Name of the field.
- qFieldTagsarray of strings
List of tags related to the field.
- qNumberFormatobject
Sets the formatting of a field. The properties of qFieldAttributes and the formatting mechanism are described below.
Formatting mechanism
The formatting mechanism depends on the type set in qType, as shown below:
In case of inconsistencies between the type and the format pattern, the format pattern takes precedence over the type.Type is DATE, TIME, TIMESTAMP or INTERVAL
The following applies:
- If a format pattern is defined in qFmt , the formatting is as defined in qFmt .
- If qFmt is empty, the formatting is defined by the number interpretation variables included at the top of the script ( TimeFormat , DateFormat , TimeStampFormat ).
- The properties qDec , qThou , qnDec , qUseThou are not used.
Type is INTEGER
The following applies:
- If a format pattern is defined in qFmt , the engine looks at the values set in qDec and qThou . If these properties are not defined, the formatting mechanism uses the number interpretation variables included at the top of the script ( DecimalSep and ThousandSep ).
- If no format pattern is defined in qFmt , no formatting is applied. The properties qDec , qThou , qnDec , qUseThou and the number interpretation variables defined in the script are not used .
Type is REAL
The following applies:
- If a format pattern is defined in qFmt , the engine looks at the values set in qDec and qThou . If these properties are not defined, the engine uses the number interpretation variables included at the top of the script ( DecimalSep and ThousandSep ).
- If no format pattern is defined in qFmt , and if the value is almost an integer value (for example, 14,000012), the value is formatted as an integer. The properties qDec , qThou , qnDec , qUseThou are not used.
- If no format pattern is defined in qFmt , and if qnDec is defined and not 0, the property qDec is used. If qDec is not defined, the variable DecimalSep defined at the top of the script is used.
- If no format pattern is defined in qFmt , and if qnDec is 0, the number of decimals is 14 and the property qDec is used. If qDec is not defined, the variable DecimalSep defined at the top of the script is used.
Type is FIX
The following applies:
- If a format pattern is defined in qFmt , the engine looks at the values set in qDec and qThou . If these properties are not defined, the engine uses the number interpretation variables included at the top of the script ( DecimalSep and ThousandSep ).
- If no format pattern is defined in qFmt , the properties qDec and qnDec are used. If qDec is not defined, the variable DecimalSep defined at the top of the script is used.
Type is MONEY
The following applies:
- If a format pattern is defined in qFmt , the engine looks at the values set in qDec and qThou . If these properties are not defined, the engine uses the number interpretation variables included at the top of any script ( MoneyDecimalSep and MoneyThousandSep ).
- If no format pattern is defined in qFmt , the engine uses the number interpretation variables included at the top of the script ( MoneyDecimalSep and MoneyThousandSep ).
Type is ASCII
No formatting, qFmt is ignored.

Returns the search matches for one or more search terms. Search results are organized in search groups. The type of search group indicates where the search matches come from (from data for example). Each search group contains search results that correspond to a combination of search terms. For example, if the search terms are organic , pasta , and America , the possible combination of search groups are:
- organic
- pasta
- America
- organic, pasta, America
- organic, pasta
- organic, America
- pasta, America
For every search group, there are one or more search group items. Each subgroup item contains results that correspond to an item type (for example a field). For every search group item, there are one or several search matches. The position of the match in each search result is given.
