QlikView to Qlik Cloud
Migrate converts each QlikView document and deploys it to your Qlik Cloud tenant, in two steps you control from a browser: convert on your server, then deploy to the cloud. Jobs, tasks and files, with the state of every document in view.
Documents are grouped into jobs and tasks and queued on the server, so a migration of hundreds of documents runs unattended, survives a closed browser, and can be retried file by file.
Migrate exports each document's project files through QlikView Desktop, converts every object with an adapter for its type into its Qlik Sense counterpart, lays the sheets out for the Qlik Sense grid, reads the load script and its data sources, records Section Access and builds the master item catalog. Everything is written beside the document, readable before anything reaches the cloud.
Spaces and apps are created, variables, theme and master items deployed, sheets and objects built, data files uploaded and the script rewritten to cloud connections, the app reloaded, then sheets and app handed to their owner, in the order Qlik Cloud's permissions require. A per-object report and a checklist of what still needs a person close the file.
The Retail Store Performance demo: list boxes became filter panes in a rail, the KPI, sparkline and the top and bottom tables kept their places, the three gauges became bullet charts, the scorecard a table with its sparklines and arrows.
Not everything in QlikView has a counterpart in Qlik Cloud. What has none is reported, never silently dropped: every object reads full, partial or skipped in the report with the reason, and a checklist per document lists the hand work left (connections to create, fields to hide from Qlik Answers, master items to name).
The QlikView arrangement projected onto the Qlik Sense grid, with texts and filter strips given the rows they need to be read.
Each object sized for what it shows (a strip for a one-bar chart, rows for a table, a readable minimum for every chart), filters in one place on every sheet, captions kept with their charts.
A Sheet Designer in the browser with a template gallery and a recommendation per sheet, for the sheets you want to shape by hand before they are deployed.
Every field used as a dimension and every labeled measure becomes a master item, named by the label designers used most, with the other labels as synonyms.
Keys, unused fields and fields with a master dimension are hidden from Qlik Answers, so it answers through the master items.
A CSV beside the document lets you rename or describe master items before the migration, and a report lists what to check afterwards.
