Data modeling
Proper data modeling is crucial for creating accurate and efficient Qlik applications. It is important to understand the relationships between tables and to properly link tables together to ensure accurate data representation.
Data governance
Establishing clear data governance policies and procedures will help ensure data accuracy and integrity, as well as compliance with any regulatory requirements.
Optimizing performance
Optimizing performance is critical for creating a smooth user experience. This includes properly indexing fields, reducing data redundancy, and using techniques such as incremental loading to minimize data reloads.
Security
Ensuring data security is essential to protecting sensitive information and maintaining compliance with regulatory requirements. This includes implementing proper authentication and access controls, as well as encrypting sensitive data.
Scalability
As the data volume grows, it's important to design the application to handle the increasing load. This includes designing for scalability, using data tiering, and using a distributed architecture.
Test, Test, Test
Before deploying any Qlik application, it's important to thoroughly test it to ensure that it's functioning as expected. This includes testing the data connections, data integrity, and performance.
Version control
Version control is critical for maintaining the integrity of the Qlik application over time. This includes tracking changes to the script, data, and configuration, and being able to roll back to previous versions if needed.
Documenting
Documenting the data model, script and any other important information related to the Qlik application is crucial for maintaining the application over time. This will help with troubleshooting and understanding the application when it is handed over to others.
User Training
Regularly training your users on how to use the Qlik application will help them to get the most out of it
and improve their productivity.
Maintenance
Regularly monitoring, maintaining, and updating the Qlik application is essential for ensuring that it continues to function correctly and to detect and resolve any issues that may arise.
By following these best practices, businesses can ensure that their Qlik applications are accurate, efficient, secure, and scalable, and that they provide a smooth user experience.

As a QLIK senior consultant, I understand that data visualization and analysis can be complex and time-consuming.
One aspect that can make this process even more challenging is managing commenting workflows.
However, with the right approach and tools (e.g.: TrueChart), commenting workflows can be streamlined and made more efficient.
In this little post, I will share some best practices for managing commenting workflows in QlikView and Qlik Sense.
These tips will help you to improve collaboration, streamline your data analysis process and increase productivity.
First and foremost, it's important to establish clear roles and responsibilities for commenting workflows.
This means assigning different levels of access to different users, depending on their role within the organization.
For example, a Qlik developer may have access to more advanced commenting tools than a business user.
Another key aspect of commenting workflows is communication!
It's important to have a clear and consistent way of communicating comments and feedback between different users.
This can be achieved by using a shared platform, such as a project management tool or a spreadsheet, to track comments and feedback.
Next, you'll want to set up a process for reviewing and addressing comments.
This can include assigning specific users to review comments and providing clear guidelines on how to respond to feedback. By having a set process in place, you can ensure that comments are addressed in a timely and effective manner.
Another important aspect of commenting workflows is the ability to track changes and revisions.
This is particularly useful for ensuring that comments are addressed and that the final version of a visualization is accurate and up-to-date.
Lastly, one of the most important aspects of commenting workflows is the ability to share and collaborate on visualizations in real-time. QlikView and Qlik Sense allow for this functionality through their built-in collaboration tools.
This enables multiple users to access and comment on a visualization at the same time, which can greatly improve the speed and efficiency of the data analysis process.
In conclusion, managing commenting workflows in QlikView and Qlik Sense can be complex, but by following best practices and utilizing the right tools, it can be made more efficient. By implementing a clear process for roles, communication, review, tracking, and collaboration, you can improve the collaboration, streamline the data analysis process and increase productivity.

As a Qlik senior consultant, I understand the importance of having accurate and timely access to data in order to make informed decisions. One way to achieve this is through the use of email automation for reporting and printing workflows. By automating these processes, you can save time, increase efficiency and improve the accuracy of your data analysis.
In this blog post, I will share some best practices for implementing email automation in your reporting and printing workflows using QlikView and Qlik Sense.
First and foremost, it's important to set up automated email schedules for your reports and printouts. This allows you to receive your data on a regular basis, at a time that is most convenient for you. For example, you can set up a schedule to receive daily, weekly or monthly reports via email.
Another key aspect of email automation is the ability to customize the format and content of your emails. This includes the ability to include specific data points, charts and tables, as well as the ability to add custom branding and logos. By customizing the format and content of your emails, you can ensure that the information you receive is relevant and actionable.
Next, you'll want to set up a process for reviewing and addressing comments. This can include assigning specific users to review comments and providing clear guidelines on how to respond to feedback. By having a set process in place, you can ensure that comments are addressed in a timely and effective manner.
Moreover, QlikView and Qlik Sense include the ability to export your data and reports in different formats such as PDF, Excel, HTML and more. This will allow you to share the report easily with your colleagues and stakeholders, and also to have the report printed out if needed.
Lastly, one of the most important aspects of email automation is the ability to track and monitor your data. QlikView and Qlik Sense have built-in analytics and tracking capabilities that allow you to monitor the performance of your reports and printouts, and see how they are being used by different users.
In conclusion, email automation is a powerful tool that can greatly improve the efficiency and accuracy of your reporting and printing workflows. By setting up automated schedules, customizing email formats and content, and tracking and monitoring your data, you can save time, increase efficiency, and make better data-driven decisions. With the help of a Qlik senior consultant, you can ensure that your email automation is set up correctly and tailored to your business needs.
