Exhibit.

Refer to the exhibit.

The data architect needs to build a model that contains Sales and Budget data for each customer. Some customers have Sales without a Budget, and other customers have a Budget with no Sales.

During loading, the data architect resolves a synthetic key by creating the composite key.

For validation, the data architect creates a table that contains Customer, Month, Sales, and Budget columns.

What will the data architect see when selecting a month?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

In the scenario where the data model is built with a composite key (keyYearMonthCustNo) to resolve synthetic keys, the following outcomes occur:

Sales and Budget Data Integration:

The composite key ensures that each combination of Year, Month, and Customer is uniquely represented in the combined Sales and Budget data.

During data selection (e.g., when a specific month is selected), Qlik Sense will show all the customer names that have either Sales or Budget data associated with that month.

Resulting Data View:

For the selected month, customers with sales records will display their Sales data. However, if the corresponding Budget data is missing, the Budget column will contain null values.

Similarly, if a customer has a Budget but no Sales data for the selected month, the Sales column will show null values.

Validation Outcome: When the data architect selects a month, they will see the following:

Customer Names and Sales records for the selected month, where the Sales column will have values and the Budget column may contain null or non-null values depending on the data availability.

Is it just me, or does this question feel like it's trying to trick us? I mean, who builds a model with 'Sales and Budget data' and then doesn't expect to see both in the final result?

Definitely, it's always good to think through the question carefully before selecting an answer. This one definitely requires some critical thinking.

I would go with option A) Customer Names and Sales records for the selected month, Budgets column can contain null or non-null values. It seems like the most logical choice based on the scenario.

Yeah, I think so too. It's important to pay attention to the details in the question. The data architect needs to consider all possibilities when building the model.

I agree, it does seem a bit tricky. I think the data architect will see Customer Names and Sales records for the selected month, with Budget column containing null or non-null values.

Option D is a bit strange. Why would the data architect see the customer names and budget records, with the sales column potentially containing null or non-null values? That doesn't seem to align with the problem statement.

I agree with Elmira. It makes sense that the data architect would see the customer names and sales records, with the budget column being either null or non-null.

It's important for the data architect to consider both scenarios when building the model.

Yes, that's correct. The budget column can have null or non-null values depending on the customer's data.

Yes, that way the data architect can have a clear view of the sales and budget data for each customer during the selected month.

I'm not sure, but I think the data architect might also see Customer Names and Budaets records for the selected month. Sales column can contain null or non-null values.

I agree with Merilyn. It makes sense to have both Sales and Budget data for each customer, even if some have missing values.
